I'm wondering if we should have -shared imply -fPIC automatically on
the PA.  The only case I can think of where you'd want something
different would be if you wanted -fpic instead.  But for building the
static ctor/dtor table stuff I can't see how it'd be that important.

You might look and see if nm is core dumping.  It's certainly doing so
with alarming regularity on my hpux11 system.

Yea, looks like some kind of shell syntax error.  But I haven't looked
at it (and I'm not really planning to right now).
