Hi Debarishi,

   some more thoughts on this. Fedora 8 has this feature enabled in their

https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-devel-announce/2007-September/msg00015.html

their toolchain is compiled with -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 . This is like a
security for protecting C and C++ code for strict behaviour.
