Re: wip/firefox2 on amd64: this is what fails

I'm basically learning all of this stuff as I go along; I just made a resolution that I was finally going to learn C, but it's going to take a while. Gotta save the money for a book or two more. ;)

I am at work now and have been busy so I haven't been able to look at this as much as I'd like, but I am not familiar at all with assembly.  I really do not understand why it is complaining about -fPIC when its specified.  I am probably missing something most familiar with this stuff would consider obvious.

Thanks for your time, I will look at it more later.

Inline assembly?
