Hello everybody!
Can anyone tell me, why HLFS compiles a hardened toolchain?
ie. things like:
sed -e 's/^CFLAGS\t.*$/& -pie -fpie/' \
-i {progs,tack}/Makefile.in
in chapter 5.
Is there a need to compile SSP and pic/pie in chapter 5?
Wouldn't it be enough to use the toolchain from LFS and just patch
binutils/gcc/glibc so that chapter 6 can be compiled with
SSP/pic/pie/arc4random/erandom etc?
Thanks a lot!
