On x86, the dynamic linker can perform the necessary relocations when a DSO is loaded which contains position-dependent code. On other architectures, this is different, but I expect the PIC penality to be smaller (thanks to more registers or IP-relative addressing). -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
