build fails at linking stage, CXX option -fPIC not handed through

[grexe]

I need to compile on Haiku (for this scenario, much like BSD).
The build runs fine until it tries to link the flatc submodule, where it fails with this error message, indicating the setting for position independent code is not respected:

Here's the config output from the start of the build:

PIC is set correctly in cmake/CMakeLists.txt and I even added the explicit -fPIC flag manually below (without that, the option does not show up in the compiler config output above):

set(CMAKE_POSITION_INDEPENDENT_CODE ON)
# seems not to be enough, so directly set -fPIC option
set(CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS "${CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS} -fPIC")

I also added these 2 settings to cmake/onnxruntime_common.cmake and to onnxruntime_flatbuffers.cmake just for testing, but to no avail.
