On Android executables must be position independent, many
distributions enable it by default too for security reasons.

+## Position-independent executables
+
+When `b_pie` option, or `executable()`'s `pie` keyword argument is set to
+`true`, position-independent executables are built. All their objects are built
+with `-fPIE` and the executable is linked with `-pie`. Any static library they
+link must be built with `pic` set to `true` (see `b_staticpic` option).
