Please note that building glibc with gcc-4.4 on armel shows an important
regression, the resulting libc.so.6 is non-PIC. I haven't been able to
reproduce it with other programs though.

I don't think it should prevent the switch to gcc-4.4, but we should
probably pay more attention to the binaries built after the switch.
