   That's a possibility. I think the "native" option is more widely used than   
   "generic" though. Codeblocks or gcc (5.1.1 I believe) didn't like it and   
   suggested I use native.

   Once I realized I originally grabbed the "CodeBlocks" tree that was Windows   
   specific, I went back and grabbed the "linux" tree which contained the correct   
   .cbp files I needed. Had I ran into any issues compiling fmail and ftools,   
   though.. I'd be scratching my head a bit, I'm sure. ;)

   I know. I had a gleam of hope in my eye, which disappeared pretty fast.

   Meh, piece of cake. ;)   
      
   When I have some time, I'll go through FConfig (already installed on Windows)   
   and fill in the blanks to get a config file I can copy over to the pi for some   
   more testing.
