Ah ah.  I see.  So even though the link worked, there wouldn't be any
actual extra protection in the resulting programs?

Since USE_SSP is documented without warnings on the netbsd-4 branch, it
sure would be nice for something to be done, preferrably the pullups to
actually make it work of course.  I should at least be able to do some
testing if that'll help.
