Package: gcc-3.3 Version: 1:3.3.2-0pre4 Priority: wishlist Tags: upstream I would very much like stack/buffer overflow protection such as (StackGuard [1] or to Stack Smashing Protector [2]) be available in Debian's stock gcc-3.3 compiler. The people at Immunix are making an effort to integrate StackGuard's latest version (3) into gcc, so maybe this will come by itself.
Even if Debian packages might not be compiled with this protection, it would make it easier for Debian-derived distributions to recompile packages if Debian's compilers already featured this option. Regards Javi [1] http://www.immunix.org/stackguard.html Used to build the Immunix distribution.
