Thanks for the tip. I tried to compile the zexy library, but got an error.

checking "ms-bitfields"... yes checking "pd>=0.37"... yes
now that is very weird. i am pretty sure that zexy's configure does perform a check for "-fPIC". to be precise, here on my machine this check is performed right after ms-bitfield, the corresponding output lines look like:
checking whether gcc accepts "-mms-bitfields"... yes checking whether gcc accepts "-fPIC"... yes checking whether gcc accepts "-mfpmath=sse -msse"... yes checking "pd>=0.37"... yes
where did you get zexy from? from CVS? or is it a source release from pd.iem.at ? i suggest using the CVS version (zexy is pretty much stable: i seldom add features, most changes are bug-fixes and i usually forget to make a new release after such minor changes)
