Hi all.

On a server I'd normally only update for security and bug fixes or new
stuff I'm interested in and until now I pretty much skipped toolchain
updates. But in the light of the recent binutils, gcc, etc. updates
and as the toolchain contains much of the hardened logic (pie, ssp) my
question is: should I always update to the latest (stable) toolchain
packages, especially from a security POV? I'm running grsecurity and
PaX w/o RBAC if that matters.

Another question. How long will 2.4 kernels be supported by the
Hardened project? Because IIRC grsecurity and RSBAC still recommend
the usage of 2.4 kernels as default.

Thanks in advance,
Max
