I believe it was "HPPA64".  Note upper case.  This was the ARCH value in 
the .mak file
if I remember correctly.

This appears to come from the debian build system.  On the other hand, 
configure seems
to look for "parisc" or "parisc64".  I played with configure a bit but 
didn't get it to add -fPIC
automatically.

I got the package to build by hacking debian/rules to force adding -fPIC 
during shared build.
