Firstly, this change makes it possible to compile wine with support for applications that rely on the implicit stack operations that are not possible when stack smash protection (SSP) is on. However, as you may have already seen in the patch, wine is compiled by default with SSP enabled. Secondly, the availability of this option will allow the user to compile wine with SSP turned off, if it needs this functionality. If this patch is accepted, you should also specify in Debian.README that package has this functionality, but SSP is enabled by default due to security reasons and isn't needed by most users. -- SY, Konstantin Demin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
