A position-independent executable is simply an executable that only 
contains position-independent code and that is linked with the "-pie" 
linker option. So compiling all code with -Cg (the standard FPC RTL and 
packages are compiled like that by default on Linux/x86-64) and then 
linking your application with the -kpie command line option should be 
enough.
