            Bug ID: 17049
           Summary: dtrace does not support -fPIC option anymore
           Product: systemtap
           Version: unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: uprobes
          Assignee: systemtap at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: bonzini at gnu dot org

Until recently, it was possible to use dtrace together with libtool like this:

libtool  --mode=compile --tag=CC dtrace -o trace/generated-tracers.lo \
   -G -s trace/generated-tracers.dtrace

Right now however it gives this error:

/usr/bin/dtrace invalid option -fPIC
Usage /usr/bin/dtrace [--help] [-h | -G] [-C [-I<Path>]] -s File.d [-o <File>]

Even though -fPIC is included by dtrace automatically, libtool doesn't know
this.  Would it be possible to revert the previous behavior for the sake of
compatibility?

This affects all releases of QEMU (the next one, 2.1, should have a
workaround).
