[ SOLVED ] Make does not know how to build source files not found

Hello to everybody,
I need to build a modified version of FPC 2.6.4 so I have downloaded
the /fpc/tags/release_2_6_4 svn tree, done my changes and started the
build.
During the build that I start via
make all OS_TARGET=win32 CPU_TARGET=i386
I get errors like the following
Code: Text  [Select][+][-]window.onload = function(){var x1 =
document.getElementById("main_content_section"); if (x1) { var x =
document.getElementsByClassName("geshi");for (var i = 0; i make[7]:
Entering directory `C:/Temp/fpc/rtl/win32'...C:/Temp/itosac_installer/
32bit/fpc/ppc386.exe -Ur -Xs -O2 -n -Fi../inc -Fi../i386 -Fi../win

../inc/macpas.ppmake[7]: *** No rule to make target `iso7185.ppu',

2make[1]: Leaving directory `C:/Temp/fpc'make: *** [build-
stamp.i386-win32] Error 2 
I have looked at the Makefile and it is correct: there are no
indications about how to build the iso7185, but if I copy the rtl\inc
files (where iso7185.pp is) inside the compiling directory rtl\win32
it builds it and it goes on.
So, I think there is something missing in my environment.
If I do that manual copy, the compilation goes on, but later I will
get errors on packages\hash, packages\pasjpeg, etc. and in those cases
it works copying the src files (i.e. copying packages\hash\src inside
packages\hash).
I have tried to change or force some -Fi, -Fl, -Fu and -I parameters
providing the src, win, inc folders (with .., ..\.., etc.) but without
success.

Any suggestions about how to be able to build it without copying the
files manually?

Thanks!

Usually such behaviour is due conflicting tool chains in the path.

Try to put just the  FPC dir and windows dirs in the %PATH%.

Hello MarcoV,
I have tried it, but without success.

I have solved it few minutes ago: the problem is the compiler.
I have successfully compiled FPC 2.6.4 compiling it with FPC 2.6.0,
the only working.
After the successfull compilation, I have compiled it again with the
new FPC 2.6.4 and everything is fine.
