Same issue with kde-3.1 Final

./configure tries to link with '... --shared -lbz2 ...' but the gcc-info pages
say that if one is using -shared he also has to use -fPIC or -fpic.

So I added -fPIC to the configure-line (35889)
LIBS="$all_libraries $USER_LDFLAGS $cxx_shared_flag -fPIC -lbz2 $LIBSOCKET"
