I don't know if iOS does randomization of loading addresses, but if so, that'd be a disadvantage. And well, in any case they need to maintain compatibility with current apps for who knows how many years.

Do they? I think Apple could easily order everyone to switch over to a more secure compiler with a one year deadline.
