Can someone please clarify the "parentage" of the Pascals

There seem to be two distinct ones. There is gpc, the subject of
this
list, and a seemingly distinct route via p2c and the gcc "C"
compiler.
Am I confused ? Are they really separate, and why (if true) are
there
two rival Pascals. How do they differ ? Are they both Gnu ?
There are even more than these. There is also
FPK: http://www.freepascal.org/ which is written in itself
and
Kylix: http://www.borland.com/kylix/
which is Delphi for (Intel-)-Linux
