Subject: Re: [PATCH] don't define SHARED macro in the source

We don't support static pie in our toolchain so I haven't really tested
that scenario but now I see why the SHARED macro is needed here.

One option around this issue would be to avoid building rcrt1.c altogether,
but I'd like to avoid carrying an extra patch for that. The other option
would be to allow inline assembly in this case since it seems to be only
used as a guard.  I'll see if the second option is feasible.
