Hmm after that I answered a question to myself - what linker is used to produce that binaries.
I knew that gold does not support mix of -pie and -static. That was the reason I added this lines initially.
I just for some reason was sure that bfd also restricts it.
I checked it for bfd and found that options are working fine together. So now I think that was correct to remove
that check from final patch.
