What are you trying to achieve, I'm a big fan of both FPC/Lazarus and the Raspberry Pi and feel they complement each other really well.
Living in the UK and coding in Pascal for 20+ years, I have had to put up with my fair share of abuse from other developers/programmers/users “Why you still using that toy” “You can’t do anything serious with Pascal” “Ha! Pascal it’s a teaching tool nothing more” etc. So I just remind them of an early Apple OS, I point out I have used it to create low level diagnostics controlling my own hardware tools and created systems that have managed workshops/large contracts, it's at this point I get fed up of justifying myself and just think this it’s their loss.

Now the “teaching quotes” comes up time and time again, and yet when an UK based charity develops this wonderful little board for us “big kids” to play around with they totally over look Pascal. I found this to be very disappointing.
 
I feel if we could get FPC/Lazarus more popular on the Pi by demonstrating just how powerful this combo can be, I truly believe it could increase the number people taking a serious look at using FPC/Lazarus for other bigger projects.

I'm using Lazarus on the RPi to build quite a large serious program. I actually do the development on a Linux machine, but there's no reason why I shouldn't develop it on the RPi.
