Description PaX Team 2013-04-19 19:44:20 UTC 
/usr/lib64/kmscon/mod-unifont.so has an RWE GNU_STACK entry which gets it killed under PaX due to the long-standing glibc bug that seemingly doesn't want to solve itself either so i suggest an execstack -c /usr/lib64/kmscon/mod-unifont.so or something in the ebuild.

http://www.sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=12492 but as you can see, it was one of Drepper's epic ones with no progress ever since.

@hardened, feel free to change the ebuild as you prefer to make it more hardened happy
