Definitely VP compatible and more or less FPC compatible (I seem to remember an 
issue with serial ports on particular versions of FPC).

Don't know how recent those are... I haven't done any work for a few years and
I don't remember the last time Maarten did.

It's been so long since I've touched the source I don't remember what state
it's in.  Recompiled binaries from the current source tree, unsure if this
revision has been tested though.

The ones on my BBS are from 2008 (!!), except for EleServ which is more current 
since that what I was working on mostly.  Those old binaries are still on
