Firstly well done for packaging freecad - It was on my list of things
to do - I'm glad someone elase has done it :-)

The problem here is that 'R2' is an arm register name. (We have R0-R15
for the main 16 CPU registers).

So there is a namespace clash. Changing the classname in freeCAD is the
most obvious way to fix it. There are probably other possibilities.
