Subject: gcc -fstack-protector

Hi,

In current discussion on the musl list, it was pointed out that
there's apparently an issue with enabling -fstack-protector by default
(with a gcc patch):

Specifically, apparently -fstack-protector somehow takes precedence over
-fstack-protector-all, so the latter option no longer works.  This could
be specific to a certain gcc patch or/and version, but we'll need to
test for it when getting a change like this into Owl - and try to avoid
the problem.
