As explained in a previous discussion, the PIE is enabled only on a subset of
architectures (amd64, i386,  arm*, ...)
Developers shall use @hardening to enable hardening, not manually added flags.
This ensures all FPC compiled programs have the very same compilation flags with
regards to PIE.

Please check CGE, CMV and Lazarus for example of how to use this. I can also
help with regards to that.

easier is to pass @hardening to your make file or include it in a cfg file that
exists already.
Compilation should be as follows:
fpc some flags @hardening my_prog_name
