[hardening-discuss] Bug#762662: hardening-wrapper: please use -fstack-protector-strong

Package: src:hardening-wrapper
Version: 2.5+nmu1

A few months ago dpkg-buildflags switched its default SSP hardening flag
to -fstack-protector-strong, see:

 https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2014/06/msg00453.html

It would be great if hardening-wrapper could follow suit and use the new
flag as well; some high-profile packages still use it. I'm attaching a
patch against the latest NMU (which is not in bzr) with the minimal set
of changes to make the switch.

Let me know if you want me to upload this, or if you want to use another
approach.

Thanks for your consideration,
