fpc is only a wrapper, it tries to find the right compiler.

Just install lastest release lazarus and lastest release fpc: to debug
the compiler etc. you can use a compiler compiled with 2.2.4. To test
full builds, just use the 2.4.0 compiler. With some shell or batch
scripts adapted to your needs, this is quite easy.
