Hello,

I've tried to update my Freebsd 5.4 p10 system to Gnome 2.12 and a 
required package for Nautilus fails to build

/graphics/librsvg2
when running make

with the following error:
/usr/bin/ld: /usr/local/lib/libgsf-1.a(gsf-utils.o): relocation 
R_X86_64_32 can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with 
-fPIC
/usr/local/lib/libgsf-1.a: could not read symbols: Bad value
gmake[2]: *** [librsvg-2.la] Error 1
gmake[2]: Leaving directory 
`/usr/ports/graphics/librsvg2/work/librsvg-2.12.7'
gmake[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
gmake[1]: Leaving directory 
`/usr/ports/graphics/librsvg2/work/librsvg-2.12.7'
gmake: *** [all] Error 2
*** Error code 2

Stop in /usr/ports/graphics/librsvg2.

Can anyone help? how do i recompile with -fPIC?
