Description

got the error to try compiling with -fPIC when building on amd64 release

so I ask please add the following to the pkgsrc Makefile around line #59

CFLAGS.DragonFly= -fPIC

alongside the similar lines for netbsd, linux, sunOS

unless there's something terribly wrong with that idea, and you have a
better solution....

Thanks!

Suggesting it on pkgsrc-users@netbsd.org or (possibly best) filing a bug
in NetBSD's GNATs system is another way to get changes in pkgsrc. There's
a bunch of people using pkgsrc that aren't reading DragonFly lists, and it
is a good for us to take advantage of that greater pool of developers.
