Link editor magic. I know it works on Linux and it fails on Solaris.
Initially, I wanted to add "Use on your own risk" to the commit
message. That's why PIC is the default for all platforms. More and
more packages enable the user to disable PIC for shared objects,
including Mozilla, SDL and smpeg.
I'd be interested in a speed comparison, but I didn't have time to
do so yesterday.
