You mentioned in your previous email that you got rid of such errors by 
adding -fPIC to *COMPOPTS variables. Cannot you do the same for other C 
libraries?  The changes in the CVS only affect the code generated by 
OCaml, like stdlib.a (the  native code produced by ocamlopt for the 
standard library).
