I have no idea about any of this stuff, but I did find this page:

  http://lua-users.org/wiki/BuildingModules

It says:

"Avoid -fPIC since it comes with a big performance penalty on some
RISC architectures (Sparc in particular)."

So if -fPIC  should be used everywhere, maybe that sentence could use
some clarification.
