By the way, you also need to adjust the testsuite so that it
finds the Perl modules from freshly built tree before
installing.  I think (but haven't checked yet) the stuff written
in Python does that already, so you might want to mimic it.
It should be enough to -I../perl/blib/lib -I../perl/blib/arch/auto/Git.

[PATCH] Perl interface: add build-time configuration to allow building with -fPIC

On x86-64 it seems that Git.xs does not link without compiling
the main git objects with -fPIC.

 * Also I moved explanation of MOZILLA_SHA1 closer to other SHA1
   choices.
