Hi,

I've just tried to build zsh from CVS on an AMD64 architecture
but it fails with

x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gcc   -shared -o pcre.so   pcre..o    -lgdbm -L/usr/lib64 /usr/lib64/libpcre.a -lcap -ldl -lncursesw -lm  -lc 
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/4.3.2/../../../../x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: /usr/lib64/libpcre.a(pcre_compile.o): relocation R_X86_64_32S against `a local symbol' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC
/usr/lib64/libpcre.a: could not read symbols: Bad value
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

(This is a GenToo system, pcre-7.8)

What am I missing?

Many thanks for a hint,
