  So, this fixes the issue for mosh, but not for libpam-tacplus, powerpc-utils, 
psmisc, ruby, sox, and stunnel...

  Wouldn't it be better to fix BR2_TOOLCHAIN_HAS_SSP itself instead? Otherwise 
there isn't much point in having this symbol... So it shouldn't be selected by 
glibc/musl itself, but by the individual external toolchains. Cfr. the previous 
discussion for sox [1].

  That said, it would of course be a great idea to upstream the patch to mosh so 
we can remove our workaround at some point.
