Good News, Everyone!

I've added support for aarch64-android and x86_64-android targets to
the FPC trunk. These targets pass the testsuite and are considered
stable enough.
Please build corresponding cross-compilers from the FPC trunk's
sources and test.
Report any bugs here or to the FPC bug tracker.

Happy testing!

Now I have compiled my app for 64 bit.

On the emulator I got some random division by zero exception when
calling ClearExceptions, because Android had already set the dze flag,
before calling my app's functions.  I do not think ClearExceptions is
right, it should clear the pending exceptions even if raising a new
exception. The aarch64 implementation also differes from the arm
implementation

I do not have a 64-bit device to actually test it. Here is the beta
version of my app, you could test it to see if fpc can generate
64-builds for your device. It shows books from German libraries

Thank you for this excellent development work.  I just compiled a
simple test project (a form and edit button) on Linux using LAMW and
Fpcupdeluxe for the AARCH64 cross compiler.  It works!
