FYI

There are patches in the pipeline that enable stackprotector support for
nolibc [0]. They should land in 6.5.

It only supports "global" mode and not per-thread-data.
But as nolibc does not support threads anyways that should not matter.
A compiler flag has to be passed though, but that can be automated [1].

So the -fno-stack-protector can probably be removed completely.
