--- Comment #5 from Alan Modra <amodra at gcc dot gnu.org> --- Author: amodra Date: Tue Aug 29 08:22:44 2017 New Revision: 251402 URL: https://gcc.gnu.org/viewcvs?rev=251402&root=gcc&view=rev Log: PR driver/81523: Make -static override -pie -static and -pie together behave differently depending on whether GCC is configured with --enable-default-pie. On x86, "-static -pie" fails to create executable when --enable-default-pie isn't used, but creates a static executable when --enable-default-pie is used. This patch makes -static completely override -pie to create a static executable, regardless if --enable-default-pie is used to configure GCC.
