Now is a good time to try to implement some hardened features in Sabayon.
Since hardening has the potential to break some applications, Sabayon
will want to approach the issue incrementally. Some of the first
steps may just be to lay the groundwork, and not really provide any
significant
I agree with Mitch, and also hardening with -fPIE has no performance cost, so
why not :) ?

Sorry but -fPIE does has a perf hit on x86. It doesn't on amd64.

I'm in the process of building up a partition on my x86 box for the
purpose of evaluating the performance hit.
I've got my root partition on Btrfs.
I must say that I'm no expert in security, so I don't know the how to
prevent attacks and, probably even worse, I don't know what the risks
are. But I do appreciate a computer with no antivirus/antispyware etc,
that can safely surf on most websites and remain connected to a chat
without too many
