[cobalt-developers] GCC has stackguard?

[Ian McCall <ian@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello.

I'm trying to build PHP 4.3.2 on a Raq4. It fails on testing IMAP, and 
config.log is complaining about __canary_death_handler being undefined.

A bit of poking around the web shows that this is due to a stack guard 
patch in GCC, and I suspect that the security hardening patch of a 
while ago hasn't uninstalled correctly. Running gcc -V gives:

# gcc -V
Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/2.95.3/specs
gcc version 2.95.3 20010315 (release)

Is that correct? Is there any way of getting rid of the stackguard 
version?


Cheers,
Ian
