Subject: Re: `exec shield' test in configure too strict?

    and so emacs refuses to configure -- but if disable this test by doing:

       $ make ac_cv_file__proc_sys_kernel_exec_shield=no

    Then Emacs configures and dumps just fine, despite not using `setarch'.

It should be possible to compile a simple program that links with
unexec and see if it succeeds in dumping, as the way to determine
whether setarch is really needed.
