Dear Fabrice,
Thank you for your patch.

Do not hardcode -pie and allow the user to drop it (e.g. PIE could be
enabled or disabled by the buildsystem such as buildroot)
This sounds reasonable, but it changes the current default behavior,
doesn’t it? Could you please elaborate, when this was added, and if the
new default would break systems?
A formal nit pick for the commit messages would be to please add a
dot/period at the end of sentences.)
