RFC: Mark stack as non-executable

[Omair Majid]

Hi,

This patch for the icedtea7 forest (hotspot repo), ported from IcedTea6, 
marks libjvm.so's stack as non-executable.

This patch should really be pushed upstream, but it was originally 
written by Kees Cook who is not on the list of SCA signatories [1].

Any comments?

Thanks,
Omair
