I would reapply the gcc patch. It should not affect most userspace binaries - for example, it did not produce any changes whatsoever in SPEC suite. Even if there are some binaries that are built with kernel-like options and get extra relocations as a result, ld.so processes such relocations correctly, so nothing bad should happen.
