I'd ignore both:

1. hardening-no-fortify-functions happens naturally when the library does not use any libc functions that change under -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 and this is probably a false positive

2. hardening-no-bindnow is just due to dpkg-buildflags not defaulting that to on. If you really want to fix it you can

export DEB_BUILD_MAINT_OPTIONS=hardening=+bindnow

but IMO this is better fixed in dpkg-buildflags itself as a matter of Debian policy.

I will have a go at testing it tomorrow/soon. Thanks!
