Description JTRiley 2010-06-16 15:38:01 UTC 
This problem became apparent when I was compiling sci-chemistry/apbs-1.2.1b-r4 and got this error:

/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/4.4.3/../../../../x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: /usr/lib//libmaloc.a(vio.o): relocation R_X86_64_32 against `.rodata.str1.8' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC
/usr/lib//libmaloc.a: could not read symbols: Bad value

I then unpacked the maloc-0.1.3 sources and inspected the configure options to find that they have a --with-pic flag. After modifying the maloc-0.1.3 ebuild (patch attached) to append the --with-pic flag and recompiling maloc, apbs now compiles successfully for me.

maloc-0.1.x is ancient. It's better to have 0.2.x stabilized
