Hello,
Don't know what problem ur facing exactly but I now have a working system
using the SSP from uClibc (0.9.30.1) and GCC (4.2.4).
The issue is to do with how GCC handles SSP on TLS and non TLS systems.
Attached is the patch I used to get it working. It's by Natanel Copa from
Alpine Linux. Only problem is Robert's FORTIFY_SOURCE patch generates an
internal compiler error during the build.
I remember u were also interested in Linux PAM on uClibc; am using version
Linux-PAM-1.0.4 and all is well. I can share the patches if ur still
interested.
