Hmmmm.  I just tried your routine with gcc, (we don't have Sun's compilers)
% uname -a
SunOS sagan 5.6 Generic_105181-09 sun4u sparc SUNW,Ultra-5_10
% gcc -fPIC -c routine.c
% /usr/ucb/ld -o t1.so -z text -G routine.o

Under gcc, -fPIC and -fpic generate different code.  Could that be the 
problem?
