remove the PF_W of the text program section

[Noah yan]

Hi Alan,

Thanks again for this.

I did the check, all the object files (*.o) are safe (the .text
section flag is all AX), But I found another two .so files that link
into the final object have .got section marked as AWX. are they
creating the problem? if so, how to do with it?

The ld command to create these .so are like: ld -o
debug32/libgenunix.so -G -znoreloc -h genunix debug32/genunix
debug32/kobj_stubs.o

Tnanks again for help!
Noah
