Extracted from the Client SDK library libifcli.a, inspecting odconnct.o with this command returns nothing:

readelf --relocs odconnct.o | egrep '(GOT|PLT|JU?MP_SLOT)'

Since nothing was returned I think that suggests the object is not compiled with position independent code, just as the error message states.

Is this still an issue with latest PDO_INFORMIX (1.3.4)?

Switching to Informix Client SDK 4.x allowed a successful PDO build. I have since moved on to major revision upgrades of Centos and PHP. I reported this problem three years ago. I have no interest in whether or not Informix Client SDK 3.x can be used to create a PDO. Never worked for me, ever.

Hmm, interestingly, the linked git repo of the source code[1] had
it's latest commit in 2014; however, the latest version of the
package is from 2021.  I'm not interested in working on such …
