+This overlay is based on the pieworld work done by former gentoo developer kevquinn.
+In fact it is his gcc-4.2 work but with version bumps on the ebuilds and eclasses updated to reflect changes from mainline portage and fix bugs in regadrs to hardened gcc-4.
+For questions there is email or pm me over @ forums.gentoo.org
+
+This overlay has support for -fPIE and -fstack-protector{,-all}
+Additional support for -DFORTIFY_SOURCE=2 and other options may be added later.
