Back in 2014, -fstack-protector was reported not to work on
aarch64, so fe881ae086ec disabled it on that target. OS-wise,
its use is currently limited to just Linux, FreeBSD and Windows.
Looking at the situation today, it seems that whatever issue was
affecting aarch64 a decade ago has been resolved; moreover,
macOS can also use the feature these days.
I haven't checked any of the other BSDs, but since the feature
works on FreeBSD it's pretty safe to the assume that they can
d/the/
use it too. If we get reports that it's not the case, we can
always further restrict its usage accordingly.
Best viewed with 'git show -w'.
