Have you verified the output from hardening-flags before and after, both of perl and of a sample XS module (I used libimager-perl as a test). > Possibly we should do an experimental upload first to verify that it builds > on all architectures, and then do a test rebuild of (say) lib*-perl to catch > any obvious regressions. Dominic, thoughts? Probably not a bad idea. We'll need to binnmu all XS modules to pick up the hardening flags anyway, so it'd be as well to make sure that we've test-rebuilt those if not Arch: all packages. I see that you fixed the problem that I identified in [1] with cppflags not getting set by including them in ccflags.
