The problem isn't the installation the problem is the linker. When you
run the FPC the compiler creates a file link.res which contains commands
and references used by the linker to actually create the application.
However the compiler places long files names that might have spaces such
as "c:\program files" in the link.res commands but the linker doesn't
understand those long file names with spaces and fails the link.

If that can be modified in the compiler then the problem goes away.
