Bug#654809: enabled hardened build flags

[Karl Goetz]

Package: freeciv
Severity: normal

Hi both,
If we are willing to drop trivial backporting to oldstable, could we use
`dpkg-buildflags --export=configure` to cut out all the manual setting
and exporting of the hardening variables?
Problem with that method would be on the Ubuntu side - they don't appear
to have dpkg-dev 1.16.1 in anything released , or in their backports.

Failing that, should I just use the submitted patch to cure this issue?
thanks,
kk
