 SafeStack is part of the [http://dslab.epfl.ch/proj/cpi/ Levee] project
 and prevents stack smashing attacks. It is reported to have a negligible

 Together, Levee's components, SafeStack and CPI or CPS, are supposed to
 prevent code flow hijacking. Once CPI and CPS have been released, we
 should try those as well.
