Shouldn't this say sparc*-*-linux* to handle hosts like *-linux-gnu?

Also, do you happen to know if this conditional could just become
*-*-linux*?  I tried to write it as carefully as possible to err on the
side of caution, and I don't want to handle a platform incorrectly, but
if all Linux platforms will always use -fPIC and nothing else for shared
libraries then I could just make that change once rather than once for
every new platform.
