Quinn, Peter S. Mazinger, Natanael Copa, Alexander Gabert, Solar, PaX Team, SpanKY and mentor. + +The work stalled. Some threads on the Gentoo forum started to do their own fixes to get it working. +Xake started the thread where most of the new work is done: "How long until hardened and toolchain will produce a hardened gcc4?" +http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-668885.html. I joined the thread and started to code. + +We started with the pieworld code from kevquinn's overlay. The PIE and minispecs part hit the tree later on. +With GCC 4.4.0 I was willing to do some code cleanup, use built-in specs and add it as --enable-esp in the +configure command line. + +Thank you all: +Kevin K.
