Policy 10.2 requires static libraries not to be built with -fPIC. This does
not seem to work on 64bit archs though (is hppa a 64bit architecture)? This
problem has already been reported (see #358637).

I'm not quite sure yet if that's a general problem on non 32bit architectures.
In that case the policy should be changed in this respect. I need to do
further investigations before.

To temporarily work around this issue, I will disable the plugins causing that
kind of problems on hppa (as I'm already doing on other 64bit architectures).

Cheers,
Sebastian
