I've done this to fix another problem which is not related to this one.
I thought that it could help because the patch forces all library
linking to be done against libgcc_s.so.1 instead of the static libgcc.a
or libgcc_pic.a (there's no libgcc_pic.a anymore). The shared library
shouldn't have any pic problems.
