I should note a separate issue to consider: that of *static* PIE support.
That doesn't need to be working, but if it's not working, or if you don't
know whether it's working, when the port goes in you need to update the
list at <https://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/PortStatus> accordingly. (Port
maintainers need to make sure
<https://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/PortStatus> and
<https://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/ABIList> are up to date for their
ports, as well as posting test results on the per-release wiki page during
each release cycle's freeze period.)
