running the testsuite with -fstack-protector fails if no libssp.* is installed in a system path, or the ssp libraries from the system path are used, if they are found. Matthias
Confirmed, what should happen is we should add the build library directory to the library path if -fstack-protector is supplied. I think adding -lmudflap -fmudflap has the same issue.
This is not an enhancement, but simply a bug: the testsuite should use the built libraries, not some version that happens (or not) to be installed on the system.
