I am not saying ssp is bad, I am saying it is only a small tool in debuging/development and should be kept that way. If there are trust problems, then ssp is used and the end user is not trusting the developer of the program anyways. Oh you don't know lawyers (or non open source companies) that well when it comes to IP :). > You might be surprised in fact at how many end users are also > problem solvers. You are talking about gentoo end users and end users who actually semi care about being semi developers which have to be problem solvers. You forget about real end users like say a game player. He does not care why your program crashes, he just wants a fix or he might just ask for a refund since your program does not work. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=28328
