Well, that doesn't seem to be the case here... all the files seem to be
compiling with -fPIC. Also, note that this same code built just fine
before the gcc 4.3 landing. ;( 

I do see this: 

desktop-menuspec.h:85: warning: 'desktop_menuspec_path_free' used but
never defined

And thats one of the symbols it's complaning about... 

Will dig some more, but if anyone has any workarounds or patches, they
would be most welcome.
