I'm not sure why that would be. PIC should eliminate those kinds of
relocations entirely.

You might have more luck using Clang itself to compile the modified IR
(it knows how to, if they have the correct .ll or .bc extension);
you'd have to give it the -fPIC option. But it's a bit of a long shot,
llc should be able to do the job.

Cheers.
