size and performance penalty to profiling applications this way, as well as
Heisenberg effects, where the act of measuring changes what is measured.
There are better tools for doing profiling, such as OProfile, that do not
require gcc to instrument the application code.

Hello Erik!
I have made some cosmetical changes to the files, removed the added
SCRT=-fPIC option from building the crt0.S file (but it is a requirement
to build them with -fPIC), and changed some comments. I have left the
ldso.c patch with PIE_SUPPORT ifdefs, but consider applying it w/o them
(see some earlier comment from PaX Team on this issue, as it is considered
a bug). To have it work correctly, you'll also need removing
COMPLETELY_PIC.
One thing is missing: PIE_SUPPORT should be usable only for i386 (for
now).
Also added the support for propolice protection (that works for me and
catches memcpy/strcpy attacks (but needs a special gcc version).
Thanks, Peter

Lea. It is about 2x faster than the old malloc-930716, and behave itself much
better -- it will properly release memory back to the system, and it uses a
combination of brk() for small allocations and mmap() for larger allocations.
