yann@1365: Original patch from: gentoo/src/patchsets/glibc/2.9/3000_all_2.3.6-dl_execstack-PaX-support.patch
yann@1365: 
yann@1365: -= BEGIN original header =-
yann@1365: 	With latest versions of glibc, a lot of apps failed on a PaX enabled
yann@1365: 	system with:
yann@1365: 		 cannot enable executable stack as shared object requires: Permission denied
yann@1365: 	
yann@1365: 	This is due to PaX 'exec-protecting' the stack, and ld.so then trying
yann@1365: 	to make the stack executable due to some libraries not containing the
yann@1365: 	PT_GNU_STACK section.  Bug #32960.  <azarah@gentoo.org> (12 Nov 2003).
yann@1365: 
yann@1365: 	Patch also NPTL. Bug #116086. <kevquinn@gentoo.org> (20 Dec 2005).
