My recent upload of castle-game-engine FTBFS¹ on armel because fpmake can't
find the rtl units, while it built in the past (albeit with FPCDIR set). The
error is this:

if [ '(' -n "" ')' -a \
     '(' 3.0.4 '!=' '2.6.4' ')' -a \
     '(' 3.0.4 '!=' '2.6.2' ')' ]; then \
   ./fpmake --globalunitdir="" -v -o -Ur; \
else \
   ./fpmake -v -o -Ur; \
fi
The installer encountered the following error:
Could not find unit directory for dependency package "rtl"
Makefile:60: recipe for target 'build-using-fpmake' failed

Although one could argue that I can set FPCDIR in the debian/rules file, I
believe fpc should be made such that that is unneeded. Indeed, setting FPCDIR
in the previous version of the debian/rules file actually caused cge to FTBFS
with the latest changes in fpc regarding Multi-Arch.
