Subject: [gentoo-dev] static compilation and executable stacks
Date: Tue, 14 Feb 2006 22:06:07
Message-Id: 1139954543.1064.33.camel@localhost.localdomain
1 I'm updating the rpm ebuild[1]. Without any modifications the
2 executables are statically compiled and I get the QA message about
3 executable stacks. However, removal of "-static" from the compilation
4 flags in ./configure also stops generation of an executable stack. The
5 information about executable stacks, e.g. [2] and [3] dont indicate
6 anything special about static compilation. Wondered if anyone has any
7 suggestions on this behaviour.
