Where the type came from, I don't know but originally this was a reference
to fcl/win32 ...

I did and found the reason for recompiling:
Recompiling STDCTRLS, checksum changed for FORMS.

I tried to find a reason for this, and took a closer look to the make
process of the lcl. When I do a make in the lcl directory ppc386 compiles
(makes) the units vclglobals, lmessages, spin, registry clipbrd and
messages. During this proces the forms unit is compiled four (4) times,
during the make of lmessages, spin, registry and message.pp. No wonder that
the stdctrls unit got out of date, if your dependent units change so rapidly
;-).

At the moment I don't know how to go on and solve this problem, I hope you
hav som good ideas.
