Harden_all_packages_with_position-independent_code + guile modules

In rawhide building the gnutls guile bindings fails, and that's related
to the new hardening flags being enabled with [0]. The failure is quite
peculiar since the loading of a dynamic module fails [1] which already
is position independent. Could someone explain what do the new flags in
rawhide do (and possibly add this description in [0]). Using the same
hardened flags in F21 has no negative effect in building the module.
