9 - make sure all assembly files declare (or are built) by setting the noexecstack flag,
10 compared to translating code with gcc, it's manual for the assembler; this depends on arch
11 support (currently it's only done for x86/x64 ELF, but doesn't always work I think... e.g. openbsd 4.0, maybe too old?):

13 "When you compile source code normally, gcc takes care of adding the GNU_STACK
14 markings so that the final object code is not marked with an executable stack
15 unless it actually needs it. However, if you compile assembly code, gcc will
16 not automatically add GNU_STACK markings."
