Below are two runs of SunSpider on firefox-3.5.3, NetBSD-5.99.21-amd64
before and after installation of a USE_SSP=yes userland. As you can see, 
the performance difference is negligible and within the margin of error.
During build of pkgsrc/devel/glib2 I see a performance penalty of 1-2% in
real time spent, averaged over a few rounds.
