Adamantix was the first distribution ever to use a etdyn-ssp setup. We |
| 10 |
followed suit shortly after. Then RH must of saw what we (Adamantix & |
| 11 |
Gentoo) were doing and added support to glibc/gcc/binutils via Scrt1.S |
| 12 |
and called it PIE. As usual without giving anybody the slightest bit of |
| 13 |
credit. |

Currently a few of us are lending a hand over at debian to help guide |
| 16 |
them in making a transition towards pie/ssp. |
