Build: Don't put GNU/Linux-specific symbol versions into static liblzma.
It not only makes no sense to put symbol versions into a static library
but it can also cause breakage.
By default Libtool #defines PIC if building a shared library and
doesn't define it for static libraries. This is documented in the
Libtool manual. It can be overriden using --with-pic or --without-pic.
configure.ac detects if --with-pic or --without-pic is used and then
gives an error if neither --disable-shared nor --disable-static was
used at the same time. Thus, in normal situations it works to build
both shared and static library at the same time on GNU/Linux,
only --with-pic or --without-pic requires that only one type of
library is built.
Thanks to John Paul Adrian Glaubitz from Debian for reporting
the problem that occurred on ia64:
