Well, this is off topic, but ARM is quite a bit backwards compatible. All ARM versions are backwards compatible(if we ignore thumb, which fpc doesn't support anyway) :)

I'm quite sure that FPC's ASM can compile hex constants (using "DC" ???)

that is not the point. You don't wont to bother with (error prone) hex constants, but want to use the regular assembler mnemonics.

quite right! especially with a processor like the ARM, where it keeps, er.., improving its instruction set between each generation of hardware!
