No no no. Don't create more nasty hacks like this. Linking non-PIC code to shared libraries is not portable. Get upstream to fix this properly and use the shared library that is already built. This issue is not specific to OpenBSD either. -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
