Does anyone know if the -fpic and -fPIC options in gcc 2.6.3 are
supported for an HP 9000 running HP-UX 9.04. I'm trying to compile
perl 5.002 beta to use GDBM. The compile dies with the following 
message:

        Making GDBM_File (dynamic)
make[1]: Entering directory
`/usr2/gnu/builds/perl5.002beta1/ext/GDBM_File'
make[1]: Leaving directory 
`/usr2/gnu/builds/perl5.002beta1/ext/GDBM_File'
make[1]: Entering directory

usr/local/lib -L/usr2/gnu/lib GDBM_File.o   -L/usr/local/lib -lgdbm
/bin/ld: DP-Relative Code in file /usr2/gnu/lib/libgdbm.a(gdbmopen.o) - 
Shared Library must be Position-Independent
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
