hard-coded path to gas. In the worst case pass @code{--disable-asm}
to configure.
+@section Advanced linking configuration
+
+If you compiled FFmpeg libraries statically and you want to use them to
+build your own shared library, you may need to force PIC support (with
+@code{--enable-pic} during FFmpeg configure) and add the following option
+to your project LDFLAGS:
+
+@example
+-Wl,-Bsymbolic
+@end example
+
+If your target platform requires position independent binaries, you should
+pass the correct linking flag (e.g. @code{-pie}) to @code{--extra-ldexeflags}.

@section BSD
BSD make will not build FFmpeg, you need to install and use GNU Make
