This is probably a bad idea: maybe we want to stack-protect some parts
of the system even when ! --enable-stack-protector.  I can easily adjust
the patch to do that (though it'll mean introducing a new variable
analogous to $(stack-protector) but not controlled by the configure
flag.)

But if we wanted to value consistency over security, and use the same
stack-protection configure flag to control everything, this is how we'd
do it!

("Always include at least one patch with something obviously wrong with
it.")
