Ok, my fault. The CCFLAGS=>"-fpic" which I added to Makefile.PL last 
June is the culprit. I don't remember why I added it, in the Makefile.PL 
I comment "needed for SELinux". The problem is that "-fpic" should be 
probably added to CFLAGS for SELinux, now it overrides the default contents.

I don't know how to add to CCFLAGS, so maybe this line should be 
commented out and SELinux dealt separately somehow.

Renaming the file to gdalconst_wrap.cpp seems to help too.
