Hi Pablo,

You are probably aware of the issue, but I would like to make it clear
in case someone else run into the same trouble:

It is impossible to build the ZUC crypto PMD as a shared library:

libsso-zuc-0.1.1/build/libsso_zuc.a(sso_zuc_yasm.o):
	relocation R_X86_64_32 against `EK_d' can not be used
	when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC

The library libsso-zuc-0.1.1 needs an update to make the asm code
relocatable.
Should we explicit this limitation in the PMD doc?
