I don't know anything about multithreading and IsMultiThread variable in fpc.
I wanted only inform the developers and users of fpc.
In example from above and in ibx-examples with fpc 3.0.2 IsMultiThread is in OnFormCreate true but with fpc 3.2.0. it is false.

Yes. And that means according to the documentation that threading is now initialized later, probably a result of preparation for packages.

Which is entirely legal as long as you don't use the variable for anything else than it is meant for.

It seems that something with the IsMultiThread variable changed.
Yes, there was a bug in the previous version that fixed.

I compile fpc 3.2.0.r59470 with fpc 3.2.0.r39795 from 2018/9/23
I am on Windows 7 Pro 64bit using Lazarus 2.0 RC1 32bit SVN Revision 59712M and FPC 3.2.0 beta 32bit '2018-09-18 rev 39766' trying to reach SVN Revision 40301.

Should "C:\lazarus\tools\install\win\build-fpc.bat" be an easy way to recompile FPC 3.2.0 beta updated via SVN fixes_3_2?
I am trying to rebuild FPC 3.2.0 beta, but it's not working.

You probably need to install subversion client tools into your computer.

I recommend TortoiseSVN : https://tortoisesvn.net/
Get the 64-bit version and remember to select 32-bit version and the command line tools at the setup screen.

I apologise for not expressing myself entirely clearly.
I have already done all that you suggest, but my problem still lies on how to build/compile FPC 3.2.0 beta after SVN fixes_3_2 updates for testing it with Lazarus 2.0 RC (also updated via SVN fixes_2_0)?
Can you help me on that?

Besides Lazarus 2.0 RC having "menu Tools > Build Lazarus" to build itself, it would be of great help another option for building FPC from inside Lazarus.

Do you have previous release version of FPC (3.0.4) installed and in your path environment variable when executing your commands?

Not exactly.

I have installed to "c:\Lazarus":
lazarus-2.0.0RC1-59029-fpc-3.2.0-beta-20181021-win32.exe
lazarus-2.0.0RC1-59029-fpc-3.2.0-beta-20181021-cross-x86_64-win64-win32.exe

Then, I have installed "fpc-3.0.4.i386-win32.exe" to "C:\lazarus\fpc\3.0.4".

What should I do next?

1) Do you need to rebuild:
- the compiler
- the rtl
- package(s)
?

packages can often be copied to a new location and recompiled. But only if you do not use other packages that depend on the one you rebuild.

the compiler...
the official answer is buildfaq.pdf

Here is how I do it (hope I make no copy and paste error)

checkout (fully recursive)
https://svn.freepascal.org/svn/fpc/trunk
https://svn.freepascal.org/svn/fpcbuild/trunk

Have ready an install (eg lazarus) of the latest released fpc.

Include in your PATH
- the installed released fpc directory
- build_trunk\install\binw32 or binw64 (and if needed crosstools)
  build_trunk is svn/fpcbuild/trunk

Make sure you do not have Delphi's make in the path.

  cd path/in/svndir/fpc/trunk
  make clean distclean
  make.exe all   OPT="-gw" 

you may want to add (at your option)
  make.exe all   OPT="-gw"  COPYTREE=echo UPXPROG=echo

then
  make.exe install  INSTALL_PREFIX=yourinstdir  COPYTREE=echo UPXPROG=echo

generate your fpc.cfg
   fpcmkcfg.exe  -d "basepath=__yourinstdir__" -o "__yourinstdir__\bin\%FPCFULLTARGET%\fpc.cfg"

I did some work on my snapshot script, it is online here:

It is a windows .cmd file with a small, optional FPC compiled utility that is a substitute for the *nix "time" command.

The script allows building for win32 and win64, and has several
parameterizable options, configurable  by editing batch variables in the
script, and warns if a step (build or install) went wrong.

I use two copies of this, one for win32 and one for win64. (one line
difference). Please read over the first half to check variables.

It assumes a FPC directory (with tools like make etc) in the %PATH%, but
allows to use the starting compiler to be specified explicitely.  This
is so that it works when I have a development snapshot in the path, but
still want to start the build using the release compiler.

On current multicore machines, using a script can significantly decrease FPC snapshot building times.

Times for install+ build on machines with SSD:

i7-3770:  2mins 8s
i5-6500T (?) laptop about the same.

Ryzen 2600:  1min 35s

I would like to compile the whole thing.
I was trying something as simple as:
-----------------------------------
C:\Users\xxx>cd \lazarus\fpc\3.2.0\

C:\lazarus\fpc\3.2.0>c:\lazarus\fpc\3.0.4\bin\i386-win32\make.exe distclean

C:\lazarus\fpc\3.2.0>c:\lazarus\fpc\3.0.4\bin\i386-win32\make.exe clean

C:\lazarus\fpc\3.2.0>c:\lazarus\fpc\3.0.4\bin\i386-win32\make.exe all

C:\lazarus\fpc\3.2.0>c:\lazarus\fpc\3.0.4\bin\i386-win32\make.exe documentation

C:\lazarus\fpc\3.2.0>c:\lazarus\fpc\3.0.4\bin\i386-win32\make.exe examples

C:\lazarus\fpc\3.2.0>c:\lazarus\fpc\3.0.4\bin\i386-win32\make.exe tests
