There's something wrong with the new gcc specs, although I haven't put my finger on it yet. The -no flags aren't working as they should and are not restoring vanilla behavior...
In chapter 6 I was able to 'make check' Glibc perfectly without Error's, using vanilla gcc specs. I think this means libgcc from cocoon (built with the hardened specs) is not the cause of any problems. With the hardened specs I tried building and testing Glibc with CC="gcc -no-pie -fno-pic -fno-pie -norelro -nonow -no-fortify" CXX="g++ ..." and got about a dozen test Errors. This shouldn't be. These flags should be equivalent to vanilla. With no -no flags I get much more test Errors, but this is expected. So anyway, I don't suggest trying to use the system created by the unstable book(s) right now. robert
