I tried building mpich2 with and without -fPIC again and it turns out that
the error message changes very slightly:

without -fPIC:

/usr/lib64/gcc/x86_64-suse-linux/4.3/../../../../x86_64-suse-linux/bin/ld:

object; recompile with -fPIC
/mnt/thor2/michael/tools/mpich2/lib/libmpich.a: could not read symbols: Bad
value

with -fPIC:
