For some values of "we", sure ;-). But I think what is really under
discussion here is whether to change -fpic to -fPIC for all platforms.
It looks like Makefile.netbsd and Makefile.openbsd would be affected along
with Makefile.linux. Some other platforms such as freebsd are already
in the fPIC-always camp.
