- Apart from numerous other problems I'm having building 2.3.1 on this
- machine, one of them is that when I try and compile some source with
- -fpic the assembler pukes on the code generated, both gas and as alike.
-
- The man page for gcc says:
-
- -fpic
- If supported for the target machines, generate
- position-independent code, suitable for use in a shared
- library.
-
- However in a cursory search through source and documentation, I can find
- no reference that says -fpic is or isn't supported on this platform.
-
- Can anyone point me to a reference, or volunteer what the answer is?
-
- Thanks in advance.
