You make the script only useful for the stack protection. If build process
does not use libc.so script, but installed system does, you
- require to maintain two places where (not much) hypothetical libc
changes should go;
- make it very puzzling to debug the issues with the build of the usermode.
Please, do this in the consistent manner, so that the script can be adopted
for other uses.
