If by next version you mean the 4.3.0 packages, yes. If you have urgent needs and if there is a 4.2.1-9 release, it should be feasible to get libXau into xlibs-pic. Please let us know if this is the case (that is, that you have urgent needs). Oh a related note, why aren't all the static libs compiled with pic versions? Is libXau not to be used, or replaced by something else? The answer to your second question can be found in the package description of xlibs-pic. I've been adding static libraries to xlibs-pic on an as-needed basis. But since upstream decided to enable PIC symbols on all static libraries prior to the release of 4.3.0, that conservatism is no longer warranted. -- G.

So if there is a 4.2.1-9 and you could get that change in that would be great. Otherwise I'm perfectly content to wait for 4.3.0. Okay, I'll look into this.
