This needs Felix to comment on, I don=E2=80=99t know if dietlibc nowadays
works with static PIE.

PIE is default on all architectures. Unfortunately, someone from
Canonical chose to enable this in the *compiler*, after someone
else chose to enable this in dpkg-buildflags, while upstream GCC
chose to do other unfortunate things, so the PIE situation is an
utter mess.
