AFAIK, `isPIEDefault` is only used in tools::ParsePICArgs <https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/main/clang/lib/Driver/ToolChains/CommonArgs.cpp#L1208> . In Flang, we don't support any of `-fpic/-fPIC/-fpie/-fPIE`. And `CLANG_DEFAULT_PIE_ON_LINUX` leads to `-fpie` being added by default to the final linker invocation (when generating the executable). But that doesn't make sense if the object files were generated with `-fpic`. Hence the change. > How would this affect mixed C++/Fortran programs if the Clang and Flang > settings are different? Good question! We've not experimented with mixed C++/Fortran programs enough, so I don't have an answer. But we should probably create a GitHub ticket to restore consistency between Clang and Flang.
