tom_at_work 9428c78d63 Pass OPT to compilation of fpmake. 
Solves issues with systems that e.g. require special options for compilation of programs (e.g. libc programs to find libc startup code) or the actual build has been compiled with options that are incompatible with default ones.

Tested changes by building an i386-linux local build and i386-linux->arm-linux cross-builds

Testing raw ODBC access:

For windows:
============

1. Compile testodbc. No options should be needed.

2. In the ODBC manager in the Windows Control Panel, create a new system or
   file DSN called 'FPC' with the 'Microsoft Access (*.mdb)' driver
   (At least MS-Access 97 or higher)

   Do not enter any username or password.
   
   The DSN should point to the testodbc.mdb database file provided with the
   testodbc.pp program.
   
3. Run the program.

For Linux:
==========

1. Change testodbc.pp and set the UserName and Password constants if needed.

2. Compile testodbc. No options should be needed.

3. Create a MySQL database and table with the mkdb script in the mysql
   directory. make sure the password and username as set in step 1 have
   access to this databse.

4. Install a DSN called FPC for the newly created database.
   (I used the unixODBC ODBCConfig program for this)

5. Run the program.

Enjoy !
