I am still  looking at
http://wiki.freepascal.org/Macros_and_Conditionals. Is there a way to
set a compile time option in the build macros dialog or one of the
other related dialogs that gets sets an option in the code?

eg. I have a conditional compliation such as

$ifdef yyyyy
  add this code
$endif

Can the Build Macro dialog be used to define yyyyy so that enabling or
disabling in the dialog affects it in the code, with out having enable
or disable a $define command in the source code itself?

There is one more thing on the page about the example Adding a macro
for search paths to handle different platforms

Is Pkg1_Backend a value that can be added to a path such as the
Libraries or Include files path, like lib\$(Pkg1_backend) ?
eg.
