If supported for the target machine, emit position-independent
code, suitable for dynamic linking and avoiding any limit on the
size of the global offset table. This option makes a difference
on the m68k, m88k, and the Sparc.
Assuming, that there is no run-time penalty (slower access or like) on
other architectures, it makes sense.
