This needs to be explicitly enabled by adding the following line to your
local.conf:

require conf/distro/include/security_flags.inc

Will we be enabling this in Poky?

No we will not enable by default, but we will do builds with them enabled regularly to test for build failures. They add overhead both in binary size and performance.
