The problem with adding -fPIC like that is that it causes everything
to be compiled with it, including executables and static libraries
while normally only shared libraries need it.

In the configure output for the SSP build it says:

checking if cc PIC flag -fPIC works... no


Can you check config.log to see why this test fails?
