Or rather, PIC code for all executables, to enable randomization of the mapping of the text segment into the process address space. I think the rationale is documented here: https://wiki.debian.org/Hardening. Changes to default gcc seem to be described at https://wiki.debian.org/Hardening/PIEByDefaultTransition It's not entirely clear if and how it's intended to affect builds which don't involve debian-specific tools, maybe something is broken. /Niels -- Niels Möller.
