Im trying to install julia on amazon linux instance.

i ran:

sudo yum -y install clang m4 patch ncurses-devel python-devel
git clone https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia.git
cd julia
git checkout v0.4.3
make

that failed on fortran
so i ran:

sudo yum -y install gcc-gfortran

then ran 'make'
but get this error

/usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-amazon-linux/4.8.3/libgfortran.a(stop.o): 
relocation R_X86_64_32 against `.rodata.str1.1' can not be used when making 
a shared object; recompile with -fPIC
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-amazon-linux/4.8.3/libgfortran.a: could not read 
symbols: Bad value
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
make[2]: *** [libopenspecfun.so] Error 1
make[1]: *** [openspecfun/libopenspecfun.so] Error 2
make: *** [julia-deps] Error 2

it seems to be something to do with fortran, but i cannot understand what i 
need to do?
I also tried make -fPIC, but PIC is not a target.
