I only had a problem with filectrl.inc not fileproc.inc.

I tcan be solved by changing line 461 of filectrl.inc to
  mode:{$IFDEF Ver1_0}word{$ELSE}mode_t{$ENDIF};

I am able to build it, but running it gives this error. Therefore I
reported this bug on the fpc bug tracker, bug number 2761, with a small
sample program showing the bug. A few days ago it crashed on the error,
but now it is silently caught, but error still happens. So no compiling
from the IDE is possible.
