Description Malte S. Stretz 2006-03-23 05:08:31 UTC
When merging gdk-pixbuf, the following QA Notice is printed:
making executable: /usr/lib/libgdk_pixbuf.so.2.0.0
making executable: /usr/lib/libgdk_pixbuf_xlib.so.2.0.0

QA Notice: the following files contain executable stacks
 Files with executable stacks will not work properly (or at all!)
 on some architectures/operating systems.  A bug should be filed
 at http://bugs.gentoo.org/ to make sure the file is fixed.

Add GNU-STACK markings to asm

I've been through the asm code, and it doesn't look like it really needs executable stacks so the fix is simply to add the GNU-STACK marking to each .S file, which this patch does (see http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/hardened/gnu-stack.xml).

All yours, gnome@ :)

Marked for removal.  Please migrate to gnome-2.x
