Hello,
Package libmath-gsl-perl FTBFS on mips and mipsel
with following error:
/usr/bin/ld: xs/BLAS_wrap.1.16.o: relocation R_MIPS_HI16 against 
`__gnu_local_gp' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with 
-fPIC

build logs:
https://buildd.debian.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=libmath-gsl-perl&arch=mips&ver=0.36-1&stamp=1461372647
https://buildd.debian.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=libmath-gsl-perl&arch=mipsel&ver=0.36-1&stamp=1459383304

I have created and attached a patch resolving this issue.

Patch is tested on mips, mipsel, mips64el and i386. 
With this patch package was build successfully.

Please include this patch.

Thank you!
