Current gcc defines __PIC__ and __pic__ if -fPIC or -fpic is used (this is defined in the specs file), and actually this is the right way to do it, but I fear that people are still using #ifdef PIC because they have seen it defined on the command line and are not aware of __PIC__. What would be needed is a good transition plan. For example, the libtoolize command could list the incompatible changes since the last version.
