Emerging sys-boot/grub fails with line "configure: error: i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc cannot link at address 2000" Running 'CFlAGS="-fno-pie" emerge grub' fails in the same fashion. Running 'CC="gcc -fno-pie" emerge grub' succeeds as expected. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Compile gcc with +hardened. 2. Try to emerge grub. Actual Results: emerge grub failed in configure. Expected Results: Succeeded at emerging grub. # gcc -v Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.5/specs Configured with: /var/tmp/portage/gcc-3.3.5-r1/work/gcc-3.3.5/configure --enable-version-specific-runtime-libs --prefix=/usr --bindir=/usr/i686-pc-linux-gnu/gcc-bin/3.3.5 --includedir=/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.5/include --datadir=/usr/share/gcc-data/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.5 --mandir=/usr/share/gcc-data/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.5/man --infodir=/usr/share/gcc-data/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.5/info --with-gxx-include-dir=/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.5/include/g++-v3 --host=i686-pc-linux-gnu --disable-altivec --enable-nls --without-included-gettext --enable-__cxa_atexit --enable-clocale=gnu --with-system-zlib --disable-checking --disable-werror --disable-libunwind-exceptions --enable-shared --enable-threads=posix --disable-multilib --disable-libgcj --enable-languages=c,c++,f77 Thread model: posix gcc version 3.3.5 (Gentoo Hardened Linux 3.3.5-r1, ssp-3.3.2-3, pie-8.7.7.1) NameMe boot # emerge grub Calculating dependencies ...done! >>> emerge (1 of 1) sys-boot/grub-0.94-r1 to / >>> md5 src_uri ;-) grub-0.94.tar.gz >>> md5 src_uri ;-) grub-0.94-splash.patch.bz2 >>> Unpacking source... >>> Unpacking grub-0.94.tar.gz to /var/tmp/portage/grub-0.94-r1/work >>> Unpacking grub-0.94-splash.patch.bz2 to /var/tmp/portage/grub-0.94-r1/work * Applying grub-0.94-splash.patch ...
