Sorry, I don't have gcc 3.2 around, and my gcc 3.3 environment produces
assembler errors in arch/x86/entry/entry_32.S.  Maybe binutils 2.15 is
not recent enough anymore?

Anyway, with CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR=y it is necessary to add -fno-pie
in scripts/gcc-x86_64-has-stack-protector.sh as well, because that
script invokes the compiler without KBUILD_CFLAGS.  That's probably not
a problem since -fstack-protector is newer than -fno-pie.  The attached
patch works for me with Debian's gcc-6 package.

Cheers,
       Sven

Subject: [PATCH] kbuild: add -fno-pie to KBUILD_CFLAGS

If GCC is configured with --enable-default-pie, the build fails early
because this default is incompatible with -mcmodel=kernel.

kernel/bounds.c:1:0: error: code model kernel does not support PIC mode

Avoid that by adding -fno-pie to KBUILD_CFLAGS, if supported by the
compiler.  This flag is also needed in the x86_64 stack-protector test
script which otherwise errors out.

Cannot use CONFIG_CC_STACKPROTECTOR_STRONG: -fstack-protector-strong available but compiler is broken

See https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=841420 and
