I also see -fstack-protector on my Glibc build, but it doesn't try to 
pull in libssp. Perhaps that isn't the real problem.

Not likely when many other people have built it and have not had the 
same problem. The only other possibility I can think of is a possible 
problem with some certain hosts, but that should no longer be an issue 
once inside chroot.

Yeah, I see that too, and again, my Glibc build does not attempt to link 
to libssp.
