Why not fpc-$FPCVERSION.cfg? And keep them all in /etc/ ? fpc-2.6.2.cfg,
and fpc-2.7.1.cfg, etc.
This way fpc will use it's version and search for the right one in a
standard directory?

I played with this in 1.9.2 times iirc.
IIRC the principle was developed for cases where every version installed
into a prefix with make INSTALL INSTALL_PREFIX=~/somethingversion. (so that
you also had multiple bin directories and everything was fully separated).
Yes, for example make install INSTALL_PREFIX=~/2.6.2 installs to
~/2.6.2/lib/fpc/2.6.2
Which looks odd.
Maybe fpc should search for <dir of ppcxxx>/fpc.cfg.
Then maybe the current search for <dir of ppcxxx>/../etc/fpc.cfg can be
removed. Only a few people use it and they will probably be happy to
have more flexibility where to install fpc.
