I fail to grasp why startlazarus should be a feature, and fpc.sh should 
be a hack.

Having multiple fpc.cfg files, as it may be required by multiple fpc 
installations requires invoking the compiler with the appropriate 
parameters. A script is just the most comfortable way to achieve this 
result.

Launching an executable via another program or a script which sets up 
the appropriate environment according the user needs is a standard well 
established practice, since the dawn of Unix.
