That doesn't tell you all that much since you will have to wait for some unfavorable address space layout constellation to appear for the problem to announce itself and then you need someone to recognize the reason and report it back to you. I tend to see this only on 32bit on my development machine where I have a large amount of dependencies installed. After a reboot the problem will move somewhere else, which means that you will need to find another reproducer. > We've added a patch that allows reverting the base address if needed: > https://github.com/msys2/MINGW-packages/blob/master/mingw-w64-binutils/2001-ld-option-to-move-default-bases-under-4GB.patch In other words, that should be the default then since you can't know if it works otherwise. Also, I really don't think we should need to change all toolchains to use these options just in order to produce working executables. If "safer" means "it doesn't work", then there are clearly easier ways to get there.
