> Does it make sense to always build with PIC?
It is possible to build executables with PIC and shared libraries without
PIC, it is not customary and induces performance penalties.
See http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/hardened/pic-internals.xml for a more
detailed explanation on PIC/nonPIC issues
Moreover, there are already packages building both PIC and non-PIC static
libraries (see xlibs-static-pic for instance)
Thanks,
Sylvain
