gcc-5: error: unrecognized command line option '-no-pie'

Summary

GHC attempts to use -no-pie with a GCC compiler that does not support this option.

$ cabal v1-install --jobs=64 --max-backjumps=100000 --only-dependencies
gcc-5: error: unrecognized command line option '-no-pie'
`gcc-5' failed in phase `C Compiler'. (Exit code: 1)

Steps to reproduce

With the Pandoc source code:

cabal v1-install --jobs=64 --max-backjumps=100000 --only-dependencies

With Homebrew on Linux:

brew install pandoc

Expected behavior

What do you expect the reproducer described above to do?

Compile and install Pandoc without using the GCC -no-pie option, which is not supported by GCC 5.
