Hi Goetz,

Since this is mostly a build change, it need to be reviewed on build-dev.

However, it looks good to me from a build perspective. I have not reviewed the hotspot test files.

Hi,

I found that not all libraries are linked with -z,noexecstack.
This lead to errors with our linuxppc64 build.  The linker omitted
the flag altogether, which is interpreted as a lib with execstack.

This change contains a small test that scans all libraries in the tested VM
to have the noexecstack flag set. It utilizes the elf parser in the VM for this.
Further -z,noexecstack is now passed to all libraries.

Please review this change. I please need a sponsor.
