Now I get this during configure:

```
config.status: creating PARPACK/UTIL/MPI/Makefile
config.status: executing depfiles commands
config.status: executing libtool commands
/usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/4.6.2/../../../../lib/libgfortran.a(stop.o): relocation R_X86_64_32 against `.rodata.str1.1' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu/4.6.2/../../../../lib/libgfortran.a: could not read symbols: Bad value
```

This looks similar to the static libgfortran linking issue.
