A quick look at my logs for doing it by the book on pure64 suggests that the libraries other than in the testsuite are already compiled with -fPIC -dPIC, although I agree that adding -fPIC into the CFLAGS looks as if it is adding it to other compiles. I'll diff the logs tomorrow. Assuming that something will now have -fPIC which didn't used to, I question whether it matters. I've seen a number of blfs packages where adding -fPIC made them link on x86_64-64, but most have now been fixed to do the right thing. However, I can see the logic in only altering the testsuite, I'll probably go with that after I've completed four sets of tests (as-is, CFLAGS, add to CC, sed the testsuite).
