After completing your first move of "double-move" castling In F.R. Chess, it is quite possible and not at all illegal for your opponent to be in a position where, were it your opponent's move, your opponent would be in stalemate, check, or checkmate. Should after completing your first move of "double-move" castling one of these three aforementioned situations exist you are to ignore it and make your prescribed second move of "double-move" castling. Exception: In F.R. Chess, when your first move of "double-move" castling, or at least what could become your first move of "double-move" castling, also constitutes a completely standard non-castling King or Rook move, the choice of whether to proceed with your second move of "double-move" castling or to consider your move as an already completed non-castling move is yours to make. You signify your choice for the former by first making your second move of "double-move" castling and then pushing the appropriate button on the chess clock, you signify your choice for the latter simply by pushing the appropriate button on the chess clock.
