Enable GCC stack protection (aka Propolice) for userland:

- It is opt-out for now so as to give it maximum testing, but it may be turned opt-in for stable branches depending on the consensus. You can turn it off with WITHOUT_SSP. - WITHOUT_SSP was previously used to disable the build of GNU libssp. It is harmless to steal the knob as SSP symbols have been provided by libc for a long time, GNU libssp should not have been much used. - SSP is disabled in a few corners such as system bootstrap programs (sys/boot), process bootstrap code (rtld, csu) and SSP symbols themselves. - It should be safe to use -fstack-protector-all to build world, however libc will be automatically downgraded to -fstack-protector because it breaks rtld otherwise. - This option is unavailable on ia64. Enable GCC stack protection (aka Propolice) for kernel: - It is opt-out for now so as to give it maximum testing. - Do not compile your kernel with -fstack-protector-all, it won't work.

Don't forget to clean generated ssp.h.

Also: Switch FreeBSD to use libgcc_s.so.1. Use dl_iterate_phdr to locate shared objects' exception frame info instead of depending on older register_frame_info machinery. This allows us to avoid depending on libgcc_s.so.1 in binaries that do not use exception handling directly. As an additional benefit it breaks circular libc <=> libgcc_s.so.1 dependency too. Build newly added libgomp.so.1 library, the runtime support bits for OpenMP. Build LGPLed libssp library. Our libc provides our own BSD-licensed SSP callbacks implementation, so this library is only built to benefit applications that have hadcoded knowledge of libssp.so and libssp_nonshared.a. When linked in from command line, these libraries override libc implementation.
