 It occurred to me that the patch might have been intended to solve
this, so I double-checked in a manual build - no CFLAGS, no log -
and saw the error.

 I too noticed that -fPIC that -DPIC, but apparently it wasn't used
for the static lib which caused the problem.

 I see that in a later mail you pointed to a patch.  I _like_ patches
(easy to see if they still apply - if in any doubt use 'git apply')
but BLFS prefers to use simple things like sed, so I assume that
specifying CFLAGS= will meet with more approval.
