[PATCH] D19996: New clang option -mpiecopyrelocs to indicate support for linker copy relocations when linking as PIE

[Rafael Espíndola via cfe-commits]

Is there a gcc option or they just assume they are targeting the
linker that was around when gcc was built?

you don't need the {}

I think you are missing a verb: Linker copy relocations *are* supported.

But how about just "Position independent executables can have copy relocations"?
