Question about "shlib-with-non-pic-code", possibly caused by assembler code?

[Orion Poplawski]

I'm look at the pari submission 
<https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=169703>.  We get 
the following rpmlint warning:

E: pari shlib-with-non-pic-code /usr/lib/libpari.so.2.1.7

This appears to be because of the following line from objdump:

# objdump --headers --private-headers /usr/lib/libpari.so.2.1.7 | grep 
TEXTREL
   TEXTREL     0x0

which rpmlint looks for.  Other .so's with this:

   TEXTREL     0x0
/usr/lib/libGL.so
   TEXTREL     0x0
/usr/lib/libGLU.so
   TEXTREL     0x0
/usr/lib/libj3dcore-ogl.so
   TEXTREL     0x0
/usr/lib/libj3dutils.so
   TEXTREL     0x0
/usr/lib/libmpeg-0.3.0.so
   TEXTREL     0x0
/usr/lib/libmpeg.so


The C code is compiled with -fPIC, but there is one piece of assembly 
and I it might be caused by that.  Anyone out there know for sure?  If 
so, what needs to get done?
