I had an interesting bug report in davisp/jiffy#208 that I think looks like an edge case issue with the default linker flags. I don't claim to be an expert on compiler and linker flags but the end question was:
However, the real question is: why does rebar add -fPIC during build but not during link? I think this is something that should be fixed at the level of rebar itself, not in individual packages.
Obviously I could always add -fPIC to Jiffy's linker options but it seemed like if it really is a missing option it'd be better to have it fixed in port_compiler itself.
A direct link to the failed build and follow up discussion can be found here:
