Comment (by [EMAIL PROTECTED]):

 Furthermore ... It definitively doesn't make sense to support -fPIC in an
 architecture in which no GHC position independent libraries are available.

 wolfgang says those libraries would be "slightly bigger and slower" ...

 .. Then a good solution would to provide position independednt libraries
 (appart from the position dependent) for those architectures and only link
 against those when -fPIC is supplied.
