Hi Ben,

wonderful idea! thanks a bunch. I'll try that out. Adding fpic to the 
gcc.jam in boostorg/build appears however straight-forward (see my other 
message), but I fear I might oversee the implications for all platforms 
where gcc can be used. I personally do not see why static libraries 
should miss PIC.

Best,
P
