I guess you mean distros could again blindly mark all binaries as
supporting shadow stack? I think they would see the failures pretty
quickly in this case, unlike the first time where there was little HW
and no kernel support.

  It doesn't solve any issue which can't be solved by not
updating glibc.

If users never updates glibc, there won't be a problem, as I elaborated
on in the coverletter. But how are they supposed to know the
consequences of turning on CET?
