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.
