1 Hello!
2
3 The check I have added to gcc ebuilds glibc_have_pie does not work as it
4 should.
5
6 If we build in a new root, libc is not present before gcc, so the check
7 for ${ROOT}/usr/lib/Scrt1.o will fail. Can this check be done for the
8 installed system w/o ${ROOT}, this would be enough to get a hardened gcc.
9 How does the sandbox influence the test?
10
11 Another problem is, that the check should bail out. I have added return 1,
12 but it continues. How should it be forced to fail/stop?

14 Thanks, Peter
