Could you please specify what kind of hardening isn’t supported? On
#gentoo-hardened on Freenode IRC I got the information that gcc includes
now patches that had to be patched by Gentoo in earlier versions. Therefore
-no{pie,ssp,ssppie}-subprofiles don’t exist anymore.
checksec’s[1] output didn’t change neither to something less hardened.
[1] =app-admin/checksec-1.7.5::gentoo
Greetings,
Nils
PS: Testing gcc-7.1.0 on ~amd64/hardened right now.
