Why should -DPIC be documented?  -D is documented.  -DPIC means define
macro PIC to 1.  There is no magic in that beyond, just a convention,
used e.g. by libtool, so that some sources can do things conditional on
whether they are compiled as position independent or not.  Of course, gcc
also predefines __pic__/__PIC__/__pie__/__PIE__ macros depending on command
line options.
