While looking through the binaries on my system, I found a small handful of non-PIE binaries, and a majority of them were Go-based. So I looked around and found this patch which appears to enable building binaries with PIE support by default (on all platforms): https://git.archlinux.org/svntogit/community.git/tree/trunk/default-buildmode-pie.patch?h=packages/go Would there be any interest in this on Gentoo? I imagine this would be simple to implement as a patch which is applied if a newly introduced "pie" USE flag is set on dev-lang/go There are a couple of caveats, of course: 1) Go is designed to be memory safe, so unless the unsafe package is used, PIE might not be too important 2) I'm no expert on Go, but there's a non-zero chance that flipping something like this in the toolchain could potentially break *something* down the line in a subtle way
