For some obscure reason you have to download the FPC sources separately, 
too.

AFAIR it's possible to download the sources only (even from SVN), then 
set the path to the existing FPC bin directory, and do a "make clean 
all". Afterwards a "make install" may be helpful (copies the binaries to 
\PP\... by default), but some missing pieces (mostly exe's) should be 
copied from the old bin directory as well - don't mix up 32 and 64 bit 
tools!
