OK, so, this is considered an acceptable result?

<ty...@tytso-glaptop.cam.corp.google.com> {/kbuild/debian/e2fsprogs-1.42.1}
530% hardening-check debian/BUILD-STD/e2fsck/e2fsck
debian/BUILD-STD/e2fsck/e2fsck:
 Position Independent Executable: no, normal executable!
 Stack protected: yes
 Fortify Source functions: yes (some protected functions found)
 Read-only relocations: yes
 Immediate binding: no not found!

i.e., it's ok for the purposes of the hardening effort for the
executable to not be PIE, and not to have immediate binding enabled?

Thanks,
