A possibility is that there is a contradictory use of flags on the cc line, at least for the amd64. Does anybody have insight on this?

Well, that -static option is telling ld to ignore the shared version of libc (which _is_ PIC) and link against the static version (which isn't PIC). While OpenBSD _does_ include a static, PIC version of libc as libc_pic.a, I would think that your first step would be to remove that -static and see if that's all it takes. If there's some fundamental reason for not using the dynamic version of libc, that reason should be documented somewhere in the build notes and/or Makefile. If it isn't documented but you find such a reason, be sure to write it down so that those who follow you don't scratch their heads like you are now... Philip Guenther
