Hmm... I found a old fix in uClibc ML archive. http://www.uclibc.org/lists/uclibc/2002-September/004459.html But it seems somewhat broken. How about this fix instead? I tested mmap with syscall() in mips. mips64 is not tested.

should instead have been testing for '#ifdef __PIC__'. This resulted in NON-PIC code getting mixed into the shared library. Oops!!! -Erik
