Shouldn't we push -fstack-protector into CFLAGS in the toolchain infra 
when the option is enabled?
AFAIK if you build stack protector support without using a form of 
-fstack-protector* in CFLAGS then the packages won't use it, right?
And if we leave it to each package to do it then we're just giving a 
false sense of security with that option.
On a side note, avahi is forcing stack protector off too since memorial 
times, maybe that should be revised?
Regards.
