Rawhide LDFLAGS (-pie)

FreeIPA is experiencing build-failure in Koji Rawhide.

http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=11554

This is due to -pie being present in the LDFLAGS on rawhide. This in
turn requires that all code be compiled with -fPIC, which is not
normally required for simple executables. Nor is -fPIC being added to
the list of CFLAGS by Koji.

Where does this bug lie, and who needs to fix it? I could add -fPIC to
FreeIPA, but this doesn't seem correct.
