Help offered with xwax package

Hi Jaromír,

Thanks for the review! I have pushed the above changes in
https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-multimedia/xwax.git/commit/?id=b26871620a6f5187d73907a684774477324f0045

> 2. Fix of hardening

As this is a real-time audio application, should hardening be applied if
it has a performance penalty? Does it offer any genuine security
advantage for a desktop application?

https://lintian.debian.org/tags/hardening-no-pie.html says "PIE has been
associated with noticeable performance overhead on i386. However, GCC-5
has implemented an optimization that can reduce the overhead
significantly."

As jessie provides gcc 4.9.2 and my aim is to provide a backport, it
seems like there could be a performance hit.

> 5. Is parallel build now default or should be enabled?

The debian/rules file is very customised, I don't see any parallel build
options used there at the moment.

> 6. I would add d/source/local-options file

Is this file still needed even when the upstream source is no longer
patched? The previous patch supporting avconv was now merged upstream.

Cheers!

Daniel
