I agree that PIE should be optional, but I'm not sure if it's flannel itself that decides to be built with PIE, or just the whole Go stuff.

It's Go. I found again the piece of code that was pointed to me by Geoff. See https://golang.org/src/cmd/go/build.go, line 3188:

pie := (goarch == "arm" && goos == "linux") || goos == "android"

So for some reason, on ARM, PIE is forced enabled.
