Attention all Gentoo Men!

Gentoo is moving to a new profile, 23.0, and I just switched to it
this morning.

The issue is the 23.0 now makes "-fstack-clash-protection" the default
for GCC as well as "cet" for the entire build/debug chain and GLIBC.

Why the change?

Those fucking bastards want to make Gentoo more compatible with the
mainstream distros.  All the common junk distros have already incorporated
this security garbage.

Listen, motherfuckers.  We are MEN.  REAL FUCKING MEN.  We don't need
no distro nanny making things "secure" for us.  We make our own fucking
decisions.  Got that, cocksuckers?

But fuck the profile.  Just edit your "package.use.force" to override
those ridiculous default settings:

sys-devel/gcc -cet -default-stack-clash-protection -default-znow -hardened -libssp nopie nossp -pie -sanitize -ssp vanilla -vtv
sys-devel/binutils -cet -hardened vanilla
sys-libs/binutils-libs -cet
dev-build/libtool vanilla
dev-debug/gdb -cet vanilla

Don't forget to force the "vanilla" option.  It will eliminate any
patching that may contain further bullshit.

Security?  Fuck you!  Not on my machines.  NEVER on my machines.

All Hail Gentoo!

The only distro for REAL MEN.
