A different issue that worries me about PIE is the impact on the
available address space in 32-bit builds.  For instance, people
routinely configure Postgres to allocate a shared-memory area of a
couple GB, so if either the program text or the stack get moved too
much, configurations that used to work will break for lack of enough
contiguous free address space.  I haven't been able to find anything
definitive about the worst-case address space wastage due to ASLR in
32-bit builds; anyone here know?
