Do not use -fPIC to link executables 

The commit "add support for borland run time flag for shared builds"
started using the value of CMAKE_SHARED_LIBRARY_CXX_FLAGS to link
executables because Borland requires some flags both at compile and link
time.  This change ended up propagating all the way to the current
Makefile generators and the behavior applies on all platforms.

In general it is incorrect to use these flags to link executables.  The
commit "Split Borland compiler information files" re-wrote Borland
support to work without this behavior, so we remove it in this commit.

Patch from Ben Hutchings.  See issue #9659.
