 They're not built with -fPIC. but adding it with CFLAGS doesn't seem to
 be enough.
 
 I wouldn't be surprised if other operating systems made -fPIC the
 default and that's why they don't have the same issue, certainly
 Ubuntu now defaults to making PIE binaries and needs to explicit
 disable otherwise.
