Submitted By: Robert Connolly <robert at linuxfromscratch dot org> (ashes)
Date: 2005-02-18
Initial Package Version: 6.8.2
Upstream Status: Not submitted - They already know
Origin: Gentoo - 9910_all_use-nonow-ldflag-for-hardenedgccspecs.patch
Description: Xorg won't work with 'ld -z now'. This adds -nonow to the
compile flags for Xorg. Need to add "#define HardenedGccSpecs YES" to
config/cf/host.def.
