The R_ARM_MOVW_ABS_NC errors are caused by the linkers (static and dynamic) not handling that type of relocation. Only gcc 4.4 and codesourcery 2009q1 generate the movw/movt pairs that result in this relocation entry, so it used to be possible to build non-pic shared libraries.

If you pull in r19672, you can use --enable-pic to force PIC. If you also include r20203, PIC will be enabled automatically for ARM shared libs.
