We'll have to weigh the pros and cons. emacs is already a complex port which has become a bit easier to handle since the pdumper was introduced. I have no idea how deep this gccjit rabbit-hole is. Do you have a working setup?

This option is required when building the libgccjit.so library. Contrast with --enable-shared, which affects target libraries. No idea whether this is relevant to us. We're building the egcc executable with PIE, for example, so maybe we already pay the price of PIC code. > How does this look?
