arn_002dexecstack

```
Note: ELF format input files specify that they need an executable stack by
having a .note.GNU-stack section with the executable bit set in its section
flags. They can specify that they do not need an executable stack by having
that section, but without the executable flag bit set. If an input file does
not have a .note.GNU-stack section present then the default behaviour is ta=
rget
specific. For some targets, then absence of such a section implies that an
executable stack is required. ****This is often a problem for hand crafted
assembler files.****
```

Added emphasize is mine.=
