Ok so you deviated from the book,  you added -finline-functions -fPIC 
-fstack-protector-all, that's a big difference from -m64 and that could 
be causing your issue. Please follow the book exactly, for that's what 
has been tested by the developers. We have a warning in the book about 
using CFLAGS because the results are unpredictable from ARCH and CPU 
types. The biggest cause of your problem is probably coming from 
-fstack-protector-all.
