Just adding -fPIC to CFLAGS in Makefile solves the problem

See attached mini patch :)

I keep having to say this - not only is libdownload not an arch project, making this bug tracker a bit inappropriate for this, but also... why are you building this on gentoo?

The Arch PKGBUILD adds -fPIC for x86_64 already.

In the future, please send libdownload bug reports to the author of the software (that's me)
