Actually it's RHEL5 GCC:

$ cat f.c
void *
f(unsigned char *buf, int len)
{
    return (void*)0L;
}


void *
g(unsigned char *buf, int len)
{
    return f(buf, len);
}
$ gcc -shared -o f.so f.c -fPIE -fPIC
/usr/bin/ld: /tmp/ccQc9els.o: relocation R_X86_64_PC32 against `f' can not be 
used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC
/usr/bin/ld: final link failed: Bad value
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status


The bug is simply that "-fPIE -fPIC" counts as -fPIE rather than -fPIC:

$ gcc -S -o - f.c -fPIE |grep call
        call    f                      # PC32 relocation
$ gcc -S -o - f.c -fPIC |grep call
        call    address@hidden                  # PLT32 relocation

On RHEL5:
$ gcc -S -o - f.c -fPIE -fPIC |grep call
        call    f

On RHEL6:
$ gcc -S -o - f.c -fPIE -fPIC |grep call
        call    address@hidden
