perl 5.8.0 patch to fix sparclinux builds none

Description Tom "spot" Callaway 2003-02-05 15:24:18 UTC
It just needs -fPIC instead of -fpic, and the hints/linux.sh doesn't quite do
the check properly. Patch attached to this bug to resolve the issue.

This patch got added at some point, perl 5.8.1 works fine on sparc.
Closing as RAWHIDE.
