Subject: libXrdPosixPreload

I was wondering if I could find a little more information about the Xrd Posix
Preload libraries.  I noticed that they were included in the 3.0.2 version
but not in 3.0.3.

Upon investigation, I can see they were commented out of the makefile with
the comment:

# TODO: solve libXrdPosixPreload build problem. The classic build "solves"
the
#       multiply defined symbol problems between XrdPosixPreload.cc and
#       XrdPosixPreload32.cc by compiling the latter with -fPIC, so
compiler
#       behavior somehow deals with the symbol clash. This is surely a
source
#       of portability problems. I do not yet know hot to best solve it
here
-varbatim-

I was wondering what the eventual plan is with this.  We need them for the
dsi module and to use with GridFTP.
