<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Hi everybody, I'm still looking for help !!! </font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Since then I've found this explanation in an IBM's manual (http://www-306.ibm.com/software/htp/tpf/pages/gtpm1mst.pdf):</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="Arial Narrow"><b>Relocation error Problem</b>: I received error message relocation truncated to fit :. </font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="Arial Narrow"><b>Solution</b>: This is actually a binutils error, but the error occurs when you make a call to tpf-gcc and specify the -shared command or the -or command, or both, to tell the compiler to make a call to the linker. <b>This error is caused when your global offset table (GOT) size has exceeded 512 entries</b>. When the GOT has reached this size, you must use the <b>-fPIC</b> option instead of the <b>-fpic</b> option when compiling your code. You must add the -fPIC option to the makefile for your library in all the correct areas because all source code in the shared object must have this option. You can mix and match the -fpic and -fPIC when your GOT contains fewer than 512 entries is allowed. <b>However, you cannot mix and match these options when the GOT has 512 entries or more</b>.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">It seems that make is using both options but I've found only the string "<b>-fPIC</b>"<b> </b>in files of /postgresql-8.1.4/contrib/postgis-1.0.6 directory (using grep command). </font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Could the option <b>-fpic</b> be a default value of a gcc parameter? How can I check or clear the content of "global offset table"?</font>
