+ Negative. I did a 'make clean' and it dit NOT remove any of the .o or
+ .ppu from the various 'units' directories. I had to manually remove
+ those files to clean those directories. The 'make clean' should remove
+ them.

+ As stated above the 'make clean' doesn't do a complete clean 
+ correctly.
+ 
+ As to the lazarus build itself. I have manually cleaned and made sure
+ that no .o .ppu files exist in the Lazarus tree. Then from the IDE's
+ directory I do a 'make'. 
+ 
+ This call to 'make' errors with unit 'Interfacebase' not 
+ fould. I check
+ and the .o and .ppu do exist.   :-\
+ 
+ I call 'make' again. This time it goes until it errors with unit
+ 'Controls' not found.
+ 
+ 'Make' again errors with unit 'Forms' not found.
+ 
+ 'Make' again errors with unit 'StdCtrls' not found.
+ 
+ 'Make again and this time Lazarus is built.
+ 
+ The only significant difference is the fact that I am using a compiler
+ cycled from the main branch and not from the fixed branch. 
+ However this
+ shouldn't make a difference. (at least I don't think so).
