Current situation is that after ensuring the existence of dummy files
I've stepped back from the RTL code and am looking at a problem that
appears to be caused by floating point initialisation in the cross
compiler.
A define incorrectly suggested that MIPS was using MM registers. Now
back following missing files/symlinks in the RTL.

wrt the missing of STAT.inc, IIRC the stat record definition on linux was
found to be slightly architecture dependant (x86 being a bit different due
to legacy reasons, of both FPC and Linux).
Probably the wisest is to take the PPC one and check it quickly against the
header.
Thanks, I'm already using ppc for comparison purposes which is why I had
a hard time finding the MM issue :-)
Question if I may: should I be avoiding symlinks as non-portable?
I'm gradually hacking through with a mixture of command-line compilation
and using Lazarus to step through. I considered looking at FPP to see if
I could log all procedure calls, I thought I was looking for something
that hadn't been initialised properly.
