I think you want -static to mean -static-pie if GCC defaults to PIE,
right?

That will break a few things that use gcc -static to build binaries for
quasi-bare-metal targets using the GNU ELF toolchain (where glibc's
startup code is not use).  Overall it might still be the better
trade-off.

Thanks,
Florian
