Actually, I went and looked at the perl source and found this in the
Configure script:

<..snip..>
               *)  case "$osname/$ccflags" in
                        solaris/*-DDEBUGGING*)  dflt='-fPIC' ;;
                        *)                      dflt='-fpic' ;;
                    esac ;;
<..snip..>

Would it be worth my time to recompile perl with DEBUGGING to achieve -fPIC?
Or am I still missing the picture?  I'm thinking that one would want
that option on virtually everything that uses shared libraries.

If I adjusted the GTK Makefile to include -fPIC and everything seemed to 
compile
ok, and the test.pl runs, can I quit while I'm ahead, or should I recompile
after fixing perl?
