#8826: [PATCH] Boost.Context builds with executable stack on Linux
------------------------------+---------------------
 Reporter:  pmachata@…        |      Owner:  olli
     Type:  Bugs              |     Status:  new
Milestone:  To Be Determined  |  Component:  context
  Version:  Boost 1.54.0      |   Severity:  Problem
 Keywords:                    |
------------------------------+---------------------
 The assembler sources of Boost.Context lack marking for stack permissions.
 When such marking is not available, the linker needs to assume that the
 code may make use of executable stack, and emits a program header
 GNU_STACK with +X permission.  Since we don't make use of executable
 stack, let's add the appropriate marking.
