I have pPATH:
[undefine at atos undefine]$ echo $PATH
/home/staff/undefine/GNUstep/Tools:/home/staff/undefine/GNUstep/Tools/ix86/linux-gnu/gnu-gnu-gnu:/home/staff/undefine/GNUstep/Tools/ix86/linux-gnu:/usr/lib/GNUstep/Local/Tools:/usr/lib/GNUstep/Local/Tools/ix86/linux-gnu/gnu-gnu-gnu:/usr/lib/GNUstep/Local/Tools/ix86/linux-gnu:/usr/lib/GNUstep/Network/Tools:/usr/lib/GNUstep/Network/Tools/ix86/linux-gnu/gnu-gnu-gnu:/usr/lib/GNUstep/Network/Tools/ix86/linux-gnu:/usr/lib/GNUstep/System/Tools:/usr/lib/GNUstep/System/Tools/ix86/linux-gnu/gnu-gnu-gnu:/usr/lib/GNUstep/System/Tools/ix86/linux-gnu:/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/X11R6/sbin:/home/staff/undefine/bin

and try compile simple program using fpc:
[undefine at atos undefine]$ cat >a.pas
begin
writeln('dupa');
end.

[undefine at atos undefine]$

why? :) strace help us:
stat("as", 0xbfffd8fc)                  = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
stat("as", 0xbfffd8fc)                  = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
stat("/home/staff/undefine/GNUstep/Tools/as", 0xbfffd8fc) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)

write(1, "a.pas(4) Warning: Assembler as n"..., 75a.pas(4) Warning: Assembler as not found, switching to external assembling) = 75

:))
when PATH is set to:
[undefine at atos undefine]$ export PATH=/usr/bin:$PATH

everything works fine.
