We were told equally positively, by equally well-informed persons, that
we should prefer -fpic if at all possible.

The best I have been able to tell is that none of our .so's are anywhere
near large enough to require -fPIC.  In the absence of any evidence that
we really are near the threshold, I'd prefer to go for the
better-performing alternative.
