[PATCH] Makefile: Fix build on MSYS2 and Cygwin

[Carles Cufi]

From: Carles Cufi <carles.cufi-hR+23Fw+YnFSHonuZl5R5Q@public.gmane.org>

The host compiler on MSYS2 and Cygwin does not allow the -fPIC option,
issuing a warning that is treated as an error and stops the build.
Detect whether we're running under MSYS2 or Cygwin and avoid adding
-fPIC to prevent the error from happening.

Sorry I didn't reply to this sooner.

I approve the goal of fixing compile, but I'm not entirely happy with
the way it's done here.  Rather than altering CFLAGS and LDFLAGS on
the fly for everything else, I'd prefer to add a new intermediate
variable SHAREDLIB_CFLAGS or similar which is set according to HOSTOS<
then included into the standard CFLAGS.  We already have a
SHAREDLIB_LINK_OPTIONS flag that can do this for the link time flags.
