+Subject: [PATCH] Check if the compiler understands pie and relro options
+
+-pie and -fpie enable the building of position-independent
+executables, and -Wl,-z,relro turns on read-only relocation support in gcc.
+Add checks to ensure that the compiler and linker understand these options.

++#
++# SYNOPSIS
++#
++# AX_CHECK_COMPILE_FLAG(FLAG, [ACTION-SUCCESS], [ACTION-FAILURE], [EXTRA-FLAGS])
++#
++# DESCRIPTION
++#
++# Check whether the given FLAG works with the current language's compiler
++# or gives an error. (Warnings, however, are ignored)
++#
++# ACTION-SUCCESS/ACTION-FAILURE are shell commands to execute on
++# success/failure.
++#
++# If EXTRA-FLAGS is defined, it is added to the current language's default
++# flags (e.g. CFLAGS) when the check is done. The check is thus made with
++# the flags: "CFLAGS EXTRA-FLAGS FLAG". This can for example be used to
++# force the compiler to issue an error when a bad flag is given.
++#
++# NOTE: Implementation based on AX_CFLAGS_GCC_OPTION. Please keep this
++# macro in sync with AX_CHECK_{PREPROC,LINK}_FLAG.
