I helped someone a few week back to exactly do this; In our case it
was a FreeBSD machine. It was quite simple just recompile the libs
with the extra option '-fpic -DPIC'. This resultet in some nice
archives with which we did the following :
% mkdir obj
% cd obj
% ar x ../libkrb5.a
(% ar x ../libcom_err.a <- This we did only for libkrb5 !!!)
% rm __.SYMDEFS
% ld -Bshareable -o../libkrb5.so.5 *
% cd ..
% rm -r obj
We did this for all kerberos libs. We recompiled all programs
and had an extra 6MB Free space :)
I don't think it should be that much of a problem to do something
similar on a SPARC.
