and wonder when {$FPC_USE_LIBC} is set and how the decision is made?
In the Makefile.fpc for the platform. It's added to the compiler
options.
And if you meant "how we made the decision": it's only done by
default for Darwin, because there libc is the only supported system
interface, for "netware libc" (libc is the recommended netware system
interface, but we also have a non-libc dependent netware port) and
for solaris (less porting work than implementing full syscall support).
You can enable it for most (all?) *nix'es by compiling the rtl with
OPT="-dFPC_USE_LIBC"
