This broke the rpm package build on fedora: They enable a hardened config (i.e. ASLR) by default, which adds -pie and -fPIC to linker and compiler flags. Overwriting C_FLAGS removed the compiler spec, but not the linker one, leading to an error like:
/bin/cc -std=gnu99 -Wall -ggdb -pedantic -specs=/usr/lib/rpm/redhat/redhat-hardened-ld CMakeFiles/mkdata.dir/tools/mkdata.c.o -o mkdata -rdynamic
bin/ld: CMakeFiles/mkdata.dir/tools/mkdata.c.o: relocation R_X86_64_32 against `.rodata' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC
CMakeFiles/mkdata.dir/tools/mkdata.c.o: error adding symbols: Bad value
Preserve user/system-configured C_FLAGS.
