while ld shouldn't stall, xorg-server shouldn't call configure with
these flags.
the reason for this are some hardening bits in debian/rules without a
build-dependency on hardening-wrapper.

Bug description:
Making a simple file conftest.c with the following contents:
int main() { return 0; }
And then compiling it on i386 with gcc -fPIE -pie -static conftest.c
returns:
*** Error in `/usr/bin/ld': corrupted double-linked list: 0x08dddb38
***
This breaks compilation xorg-server on i386. I believe that -static
-fPIE -pie is probably invalid, and it fails on amd64 too.
$ gcc -fPIE -pie -static conftest.c
/usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.8/crtbeginT.o: relocation
R_X86_64_32 against `__TMC_END__' can not be used when making a shared object;
recompile with -fPIC
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/4.8/crtbeginT.o: error adding symbols: Bad value
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
But autoconf hangs on the corrupted double-linked list, which times
out the xorg-server build.
