Hi,
according to http://wiki.freepascal.org/AVR I'm trying to build FPC
3.0.2 from the sources in Slackware 14.2 but it fails with this
message:
Code: GNU make  [Select][+][-]window.onload = function(){var x1 =
document.getElementById("main_content_section"); if (x1) { var x =
document.getElementsByClassName("geshi");for (var i = 0; i Free Pascal

Any ideas how to make it build?

I also get that error when building a cross compiler using 3.0.2
source.  I would recommend using the trunk version of the compiler for
AVR, quite a number of fixes have been added since 3.0.2. This would
obviously need the 3.0.2 compiler to start the bootstrap build
process.

@ccrause:
Thanks. You're right. Trunk version builds without errors.
