Short answer: Yes.

Long answer:
Everything in fpc.cfg is globally available and can effect any package.
Just like any fpc unit.
Any unit in the global search path is treated by default as coming from
FPC - as a very big package. That's why the Code Browser shows
the strange information. But that is merely a glitch and not the cause
of the problem.
Because a global unit has changed, the next step is to check
whether a ppu file needs rebuilding. This is what the compiler is
doing.

Possible solutions:
1. Put your units into a package instead of into fpc.cfg. Then the IDE
knows the dependencies between the units and does not need to ask the
compiler.

2. Open the package fcl.lpk and set it to update "manually".

3. Wait until the IDE can check the ppu files on its own.
