Today I hit the same error while I was accidently compiling Lazarus on an 
older Linux box with a version 1.0.7 compiler.

The current version of TApplication is derived from TCustomApplication.
TCustomApplication is defined in the FCL. So in your case you need a newer 
FCL (my 1.0.10 version has it).

While I'm at this now, I think it doen't make sense anymore to control this 
by the UseCustApp define, since if you undefine it, you get errors of base 
members not found.
Is there any reason to keep this define ?
