Please see > http://mail-index.netbsd.org/tech-x11/2003/06/02/0001.html No, that's a valid goal. But you need to be careful not to break things. On Linux at least, there are PIC/non-PIC issues. Some ports require PIC, others non-PIC, still others don't care. I forget the details, recalling instead only that it's not obvious from just perusing the code.
