These are all fairly standard flags being used to build the major distros these days (other distros patch their toolchain to make these the default), so there should be few issues. Probably the only thing to watch out for is to disable them when building bootloaders.

It is fairly well known that grub does not work when compiled with stack smashing protection, but I have not investigated the details. I think syslinux should be fine these days, but a while back there were apparently issues. Just something to note... Allan
