This should not longer be the case. I noticed a few months (?) ago and fixed it in the CVS at least. It turns out that this is caused by assembler files (*.s, not *.c with inline assembler) that do not declare that the stack is non-executable. No piece of code in dietlibc actually needs the stack to be executable. We now pass -Wa,--noexecstack to as in the Makefile.
