[grsec] difference between "new" and "legacy" toolchain

Hello everybody,

enabling the PAX features requires your applications beeing compiled with "a 
new toolchain". Now I'm wondering what's that exactly. Does this only mean, 
I need simply a quite recent gcc/coreutils/etc. or what's so special about 
the needed toolchain?

Thank you
Marcel
