trying to build a .so file (actually, trying to resuscitate pyd) with gdc.

celerid is spitting out

gdc -fPIC -nostartfiles -shared -fdebug {lots of object files plus some

which is spitting out

/usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib64/libgphobos2.a(object_.o): relocation
R_X86_64_32S against `_D11TypeInfo_Pv6__initZ' can not be used when
making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC
/usr/lib64/libgphobos2.a: could not read symbols: Bad value

any ideas what might be wrong?

Shared libs on linux require things to be compiled with -fPIC so the
code can be relocated.  The error looks like phobos wasn't build with
position-independent code.  Beyond that I don't know.

DMD cannot currently generate correct PIC on linux.
