For example: 
When the IDE builds lazarus it calls 'make' and parses the output for make
and fpc output. If the user has a localized fpc, the IDE can't understand
it.

It will solve direct compilation. But there are enough cases, where a simple
ppc386 command is not sufficient (for example everything with
gtk2forpascal).
