Hi. I am attempting to get msql3 installed with php. Using php version
php5.1-200604070430 and msql-3.7. I am getting the following error on
compile.

/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/3.4.6/../../../../x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld:
/usr/local/msql3/lib/libmsql.a(libmsql.o): relocation R_X86_64_32
against `a local symbol' can not be used when making a shared object;
recompile with -fPIC
/usr/local/msql3/lib/libmsql.a: could not read symbols: Bad value
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [libphp5.la] Error 1

I'm running 64 bit Gentoo 2.6.13. It states I need to recompile msql
with PIC support? I attempted to do it manually via 'make
EXTRA_CFLAGS=-fPIC' however config started complaining. How do i install
with PIC and is that recomended?

thanks,
anthony
