That is true, for sure. But the problem is that the flexibility of
being able to not use libsafe when one wants is limiting one's
ability to use it everytime one wants. That does not seem like a
prudent trade-off.
If you want to maintain the ability to not use it when you choose (I
can't imagine why one would choose not to use it, but whatever...) and
you want to build it right into glibc, you could use an environment
variable (prior to program invocation) to either turn the feature on
or off (whichever you want to default to -- I don't care which way it
is).
