Hmm... okay, could you please grep Makefiles in lib-src/ and src/, and
see if FORTIFY_SOURCE appears in any of them?  If not, I guess the
references to those _chk functions are coming from some libraries
linked into the programs we compile, and that probably means we need
to use -lssp for MinGW just in case?
