Can you please provide some references why on hppa the linker needs
-fPIE in addition to -pie
-fPIE is not a "ld" option. It is a compiler option.
Right, that's why I don't see why it should be added to possible_link_flags
It's needed because the compiler driver is being used to optimize the
link. ld is not being
used directly. The linker optimization involves various compilations
which need the option.
The libtool driver is another example of this. If ld were used
directly, then the option wouldn't
be needed. But then the build process would have to select the correct
startup files, etc.
