Dear Sirs,

I try to compile PacmanXG4 under archlinux for arm with fpc-2.6.2
and/or
fpc-2.6.4.
The first try generated following errors:

I've replaced these i386 specific calls by the arm specific calls
(from mathu.inc) to "VFP_GetCW" and to "VFP_SetCW".
Compiling with changes generates similar errors:

----------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------
I think, I should include math.inc or mathu.inc for arm from the fpc.
I wrote my last pascal program 30 years ago and don't remember how to
do it.

Can anybody help please?

Kind Regards,
Michael Wachs

Try to comment out the lines with the get8087cw() and set8087cw()
calls.
MSEide+MSEgui is currently not officially supported for ARM.
