If you already know that you're suffering from a slow development cycle due to PIE, you might as well just type `cmake -DCMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS=-no-pie`. The idea of doing by default was to fix the problem for developers who didn't even know they had the problem.

There is a point because it requires I know the flag for this, the cmake flag for this, and need to know I should think about this in the first place. This should be an option prominently advertised in the llvm cmake usage documentation and put in the developer guide
