No. It's not really port-specific. The errors below were generated on
NetBSD-1.5.3/i386. NetBSD-mac68k/1.5ZC has worse problems with kaffe,
but it gets a handful of similar errors, too.

Interesting. But all the kaffe objects are compiled "-fPIC -DPIC" by
virtue of "libtool", and libc is compiled "-fPIC -DPIC", too, of
course, so that's not it.
