in reply to compile libperl.a with -fPIC

Hi,
I guess you could modify the ccflags setting in Config.pm to include -fPIC. I think that would ensure that the -fPIC option is included in the compilation ... though I don't know if that's going to be the solution. (That is, you may find that the solution is not so simple as just compiling with -fPIC ... but it's worth a try.)

Cheers,
Rob
