There hopefully shouldn't be any trouble with that outside of e2fslib.

E2fslib will move out of arcboot with the next release and arcboot will
link against the non pic version in the debian archive. I'd really like
to keep e2fslib out of arcboot (at least for the debian version which is
quiet different from the oss.sgi.com version). There should't be many
libc header dependencies left then. If there are still any I'd be happy
to kill them.

Except for the above change I was working on a better command line
handling among other things which I never got around to finish. Maybe
this beats me to it.
