You will get these messages on x86_64 any place that libtool tries to
use a static (.a) library in a .la, and as it says, it can't link.
These "recompile with -fPIC" messages fall into three types -
(i) recompile the current package with -fPIC
(ii) fix a broken symlink (I had a dangling symlink for ncurses in my
scripts, because of a typo - on x86 libtool couldn't find the .so but
took the .a and ran with it, on x86_64 it barfed).
(iii) convert a Makefile to use .la instead of .a (very uncommon).
On my pure64 system :

- Do you have these, and if you do, are the symlinks correct ?
libXau is built while X is building general libraries, I imagine you
would have to do something fairly unusual to not build it in 6.9 - if
it's missing, did you log X, and if so, did it error out somewhere
(search for 'Error:' or 'Error ' to avoid Error.h) ?
