Re: buildworld failure: main-n284554-1aecb32021ce -> main-n284582-33345b883485

i was facing the same issue,buildworld was failing with

ld: error: relocation R_X86_64_32S cannot be used against local symbol; recompile with -fPIC
>>> defined in params_idx.pico

and so on and can confirm that reverting that fixed the issue
