--- Comment #22 from Jakub Jelinek <jakub at gcc dot gnu.org> 2013-01-18 15:41:09 UTC --- Forcing everything to be built as -pie is a non-starter. The 5% just aren't worth the trouble. Especially, how are you going to deal with say a -fsanitize=address shared library built with 1 << 44 shadow offset and a PIE binary built with 0 shadow offset?
