This change is making it almost impossible for me to pass external CFLAGS without forcefully disabling the automatic detection of stackprot. I need to do it for some archs (e.g. "-march=armv5t -mthumb") or even to change optimization levels.
I figured that the simplest way to recover that functionality for me consists in using a dedicated variable to assign stack protector per supported architecure and concatenating it to the per-arch CFLAGS like this:

help:
And now with this it works again for me on all archs, with all of them showing "SKIPPED" for the -fstackprotector line except i386/x86_64 which show "OK".
Are you OK with this approach ? And if so, do you want to respin it or do you want me to retrofit it into your 3 patches that introduce this change (it's easy enough so I really don't care) ?
Thanks! Willy
