That's not filtering, that's inverting. In this case I need filtering. I can try to get the developers to change their makefiles, but none of that would help if I can't get -fpie and -fno-pie out of the user's CFLAGS. I could of course close any bugs that I would get because of these CFLAGS as invalid and suggest they use the appropriate gcc profile instead. Would that be reasonable?
