updating ebuilds for alpha, incude -fPIC.

I've seen for ebuilds like xfree 4.3, that there is no -fPIC in the allowed 
cflags, this makes sense for x86, but if I have understood right, it's nearly 
a requirement for the alpha architecture.
Shouldn't there be an automatic "if arch=alpha then allow cflags = -fPIC" or 
something similar. It would have helped a lot to have it embedded in all 
ebuilds, so you not compile for some hours and the get a gp_allocation error.
