If you require a new toolchain, nobody even builds your fancy feature.
Probably including 0day and all of the lazy maintainers with crufty old
distros.

The point isn't to actually run CET at all.  The point is to get as many
people as possible testing as much of it as possible.  Testing includes
compile testing, static analysis and bloat watching.  It also includes
functional and performance testing when you've got the feature compiled
in but unavailable at runtime.  Did this hurt anything even when I'm not
using it?
