mysql 5.0.51b and ssl

[kalin m]

from what i understand this is not uncommon. and it goes back to 2005.
and it has to do with the fact that the machine identifies itself as 
amd64 even though it's an intel machine.

what's not clear is what needs to be recompiled whit -fPIC?! my guess is 
openssl needs to. why?

are there any flags i can change in the Makefile for the mysql build? 
does it have to be a 'shared'? static?!

thanks...
