Hi,

Every time I merge gimp I have the same problem :
I have to remove -fPIC from my CFLAGS, as otherwise it breaks with this:

then mv -f ".deps/gimp-composite-mmx.Tpo" ".deps/gimp-composite-mmx.Po"; \
else rm -f ".deps/gimp-composite-mmx.Tpo"; exit 1; \

It is the same for a few other apps that use mmx.

So please, filter the -fPIC flag out in the ebuild to fix the matter.

Thanks.
