When compiling a C-program with the -fpic option, the native
assembler gives me errors like:

   as error: "foo.s" line  65: syntax error
   as error: "foo.s" line  129: syntax error
   .
   .

The corresponding assemler code looks like:

   .
   .
   lea (%pc, __GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_@GOTPC), %a5
   .

It looks like gcc produces assembler-code that my native assembler doesn't
understand.

My system is a HP900/400 running HPUX 8.00.

I' using gcc-2.7.2. I installed all nescessary system-patches before the
built. I compiled gcc without errors. I'm not using the gnu-assembler
nor the gnu-linker, because they do not support PIC on a m68k-hp-hpux8.00
system.

Isn't it possible with gcc to make PIC on my system?

The recipe was guaranteed not to fail by the company which made 
the shortening. But from the first the cake had acted strangely.
