I wonder what the overhead is of using -fPIC when -fpic would be
sufficient.  Whatever it is, the proposed patch imposes it on every
shlib or extension, to accommodate one single extension that isn't
even one we ship.

Maybe this is small enough to not be something we need to worry about,
but I'm wondering if we should ask citus and other large .so's to set
some additional make flag that would cue usage of -fPIC over -fpic.
