Public bug reported:
Due to a mistake in "disable -pie when gcc has it enabled by default"
the -no-pie flag appears after -shared when linking vdso64.so.dbg. These
flags are mutually exclusive, and the last one in the compiler options
takes precedence. The intention was that -no-pie would be placed at the
start of the flags so that a later -shared would take precedence, and
the situation now is that the vdso lacks dynamic symbol tables, breaking
some applications.
