Do you know what is current status of hardened GCC 4.* ? |
| 6 |
Is there any hope that it will be available in next few months ? |

I have tried to search GCC site, but I haven't found anything |
| 9 |
interesting. There is no real development roadmap and it is very hard to |
| 10 |
find anything about SSP. |

On the other hand, Wikipedia |
| 13 |
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stack-smashing_protection) and official |
| 14 |
ProPolice site (http://www.research.ibm.com/trl/projects/security/ssp/) |
| 15 |
say that GCC 4.1 contains reimplementation of SSP. |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
So after hour of reading I am really confused and I would be very |
| 18 |
grateful if you could write something about it. |
