Hi Steven,
--disable-stack-protector would also be useful for platforms which make
debugging of executables with stack protection difficult. When I must
debug Windows executables, I always disable stack protection, because
otherwise the stack back traces are unreadable.
So, for MinGW it might be reasonable to set the default to no stack
protection if --enable-debug is selected. This requires some
modifications in your patch.
# Don't set it to "yes" initially:
stack_protector=""
# Do the compile test if it is not "no":
if test "$stack_protector" != "no"; then
The usual logic is do nothing if the user says "no". Run the compile
tests otherwise. Show an error message if the compile tests fail and the
user said "yes". See the code which handles $pie for an example.
Please send your next patch inline - this makes it easier to add comments.
Best regards
Stefan
