[Bug 1881417] Re: -buildmode=pie not supported on riscv64

[Michael Hudson-Doyle]

** Also affects: golang-1.14 (Ubuntu Focal)
   Importance: Undecided
       Status: New

** Description changed:

+ [impact]
  -buildmode=pie not supported on riscv64
  
  it should be, tried forcing to enable it on top of our patches, but
  golang toolchain failed to build (testsuire errors)
+ 
+ [test case]
+ The tests run during build should be sufficient
+ 
+ [regression potential]
+ There should be no impact away from riscv at all.
+ 
+ There is no standard way to probe for buildmode=pie being enabled but
+ it's possible that a package might test for it and use it now that it's
+ present and then encounter new bugs. But it seems very unlikely.
