Description of problem: With -specs=/usr/lib/rpm/redhat/redhat-hardened-ld in LDFLAGS it is no longer possible to statically link the C run-time. I see no way to work around this breakage, except removing -specs=/usr/lib/rpm/redhat/redhat-hardened-ld from LDFLAGS. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): redhat-rpm-config-36-1.fc23.noarch Steps to Reproduce: $ printf 'int main() { }\n' | gcc -xc - -static $ printf 'int main() { }\n' | gcc -xc - -static -specs=/usr/lib/rpm/redhat/redhat-hardened-ld /usr/bin/ld: /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/5.1.1/../../../../lib64/libc.a(libc-start.o): relocation R_X86_64_32 against `_dl_starting_up' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/5.1.1/../../../../lib64/libc.a: error adding symbols: Bad value collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
