Build systems seem to be a constant itch.  See a list here:

Shouldn't we add FPC to that list?

IMO the list completely ignores the existence of platform independent development systems, like for Basic, Java, .NET and other interpreted or VM-based languages. It's a selfmade complication, when a compiler-based programming language allows for a platform-independent RTL, and that chance is not taken in writing portable applications. In so far a portable gcc is only half baked, without an equally portable libc (and other libraries) - at least for writing really portable code.
