make problem xinelib-1.1.7

Would appreciate advice on the following

Downloaded and configured latest source package.

Running 'make' fails (see last line following output fragment) with

xine.c: In function `xine_init':

...

It looks to me as if xine.o WAS compiled with -fPIC (see <<<HERE) so the 
suggestion to compile with -fPIC appears less than helpful.

Any suggestions where I go astray and how to fix this most welcome.

Thanks,
Enno
