Some time ago we migrated Tensorflow to build with this flag flipped, but it regressed again (https://buildkite.com/bazel/bazel-at-head-plus-downstream/builds/1207#d1e5940d-bde3-46cd-8734-1b6f2fddabf5). The incompatible flag: https://github.com/bazelbuild/bazel/issues/7362 I'm looking into it. This is a tracking issue for this effort :)
