These options are invalid on the ssp in gcc4, which changed from Gentoo's patchset in 3.x etc. Thus, the build breaks. Here's the relevant portion from the build log: /var/log/portage/10235-darcs-1.0.6.log-ghc -cpp -package QuickCheck -package util -package parsec -O -funbox-strict-fields -Wall -Werror -I. -DHAVE_CURSES -DHAVE_CURL -optl-L/usr/lib -optl-lcurl -optl-ldl -optl-L/usr/lib -optl-lgnutls -optl-lgcrypt -optl-lgpg-error -optl-lz -optl-lcurses -o stringify stringify.hs /var/log/portage/10235-darcs-1.0.6.log-gcc: unrecognized option '-nopie' /var/log/portage/10235-darcs-1.0.6.log:cc1: error: unrecognized command line option "-fno-stack-protector-all" /var/log/portage/10235-darcs-1.0.6.log-make: *** [stringify] Error 1 /var/log/portage/10235-darcs-1.0.6.log- /var/log/portage/10235-darcs-1.0.6.log-!!!

spyderous, would you mind looking over ghc-6.4.1-r3 (currently p.masked) which handles these options differently. I expect that it should work for gcc 4, though with recent toolchain elcass changes it might be possible to improve it.
More changes have gone in to ghc-6.4.1-r3, ghc-6.4.2 and ghc-bin-6.4.1-r1 to address this issue. Anyone with an old ghc installation (6.4.1-r1 or earlier) who upgrades their gcc to 4.x and hits this problem will be able to rescue the situation by re-emerging ghc using one of these new revisions. These new revisions will also allow you to switch freely between gcc-3.x and 4.x. However users will no longer be able to switch freely between vanilla and hardened gcc. For the moment that will require re-emerging ghc (or ghc-bin). This should also fix the -nopie warnings. So this is a workable solution, it makes life a bit harder for people who use hardened gcc but there are rather more people using gcc-4.x. An ideal solution would require a ghc-config program and have that hook into gcc-config so that we can adjust ghc's CFLAGS when gcc changes.
