Thanks Maxime for your quick answer. 

Just to be sure of what that would imply (using the second answer here:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2649735/how-to-link-static-library-into-dynamic-library-in-gcc):

1) We keep the version of clapack patched for -fPIC.
2) I need to make a package providing a shared version of clapack based
on this version of clapack compiled with -fPIC.

Also, my original patch is wrong, I'll send a corrected one once I
understand the process.
