Are we speaking here of the socket patch?

+#ifndef _LIBC
 #include <asm/socket.h>
+#endif

Than you misunderstand me, the patch is needed to build ssp.c itself 
part of uClibc (UCLIBC_PROPOLICE enabled) w/o warnings of redefines, 
nothing else does have problems, the userland apps are not influenced by 
this patch, because none will/should (hopefully) define _LIBC

If though we are speaking of the frandom patch, then I do not understand 
what's not clear.

Which gcc? Only gcc-3.4.x would work correctly w/ -pie on ppc.

I am using it like this already ;) (and had it in the originally proposed 
uclibc ebuild, someone removed it, :-( )
