Hey there,

I got exactly the same error that you got except that I was compiling libcap. The source and object files were even the same. Anyway, I compared your CFLAGS to mine and found that the only questionable one that we both used was -fPIC. I removed it from mine, tried compiling again and it worked no problem.
