2.4.0-2ubuntu4 has a patch required to prevent fpc crashing while building itself, the Debian version lacks this patch hence why it crashes on the iMX51 machines in the datacenter. The 2.4.0-2ubuntu4~bootstrap5 package has this patch, and was built by a version of fpc with this patch, so its suitable for the bootstrapping the inarchive version of fpc; it should be a matter of adding my PPA, building fpc, and uploading.
Successfully bootstrapped fpc building against itself in my PPA: https:/ /launchpad. net/~mcasadeval l/+archive/ ppa/+packages
