Package: dpkg-dev
Version: 1.22.4
Severity: minor

man:dpkg-buildflags(1) documents only how to specify multiple area
features fot the same area with examples like:

export DEB_BUILD_MAINT_OPTIONS=hardening=+pie,-fortify
export DEB_BUILD_MAINT_OPTIONS=hardening=-all,+format,+fortify

There is no documentation how to specify area features for different
areas like "abi" and "hardening" at the same time.

(This probably also leads to the question if one can specify

hardening=+pie{something-for-abi}hardening=+fortify

or if all area features have to be enabled/disabled at once.)
