I believe shared library/PIC is broken under ia32 since Aug. 29.


Please take a look at

http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-testresults/2000-08

and check all reports on Linux/ia32 configured with --enable-shared.
You will see since around Aug. 29, PIC is broken:

Native configuration is i586-pc-linux-gnu

                === libio tests ===

It is too bad that not many gcc developers using --enable-shared to
configure gcc under ia32. See

http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-bugs/2000-09/msg00025.html

for details.
