Although (since I know Rich works on OCaml stuff) since OCaml is compiled to

OCaml isn't compiled to C, it's compiled direct to machine code.

The OCaml native code compiler supports -fPIC output.  I'm not quite
sure if PIE is just PIC applied to the main program, or if there is
some other magic it does.

PIE produces a position independent executable. This is not the same thing as an executable that just happens to have been linked together from PIC code. It's more like a DSO that happens to have a main() function.
