In order to test if the flag works, it uses +AX_CHECK_COMPILE_FLAG(), which only does a *compile* test, but not +a *link* test. However, some flags such as -fstack-protector might +appear to work at compile time, but not link time. Therefore +-fstack-protector is considered functional: + +checking whether C compiler accepts -fstack-protector-strong... yes + +but the build later fails: + +/home/buildroot/autobuild/instance-0/output-1/host/lib/gcc/m68k-buildroot-linux-uclibc/13.3.0/../../../../m68k-buildroot-linux-uclibc/bin/ld: cannot find -lssp_nonshared: No such file or directory +/home/buildroot/autobuild/instance-0/output-1/host/lib/gcc/m68k-buildroot-linux-uclibc/13.3.0/../../../../m68k-buildroot-linux-uclibc/bin/ld: cannot find -lssp: No such file or directory +collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status + +In order to fix this, we test all flags with AX_CHECK_LINK_FLAG() +which does a full *link* of the test program.
