Hi James,

Indeed readelf contains some non-executable program headers in
2:1.3.5-1+b1 which do not appear in 2:1.3.5-1 in buster. The
".rotext" section sounds suspicious.
indeed, the check_cpu_feature() function is defined in
src/utils/x86_asm/cpuid.asm [1] which includes src/nasm.inc, which in
turn declares a .rotext section [2] for any other output format than
macho32 and macho64.
It would probably be the best patch this to simply declare a .text
section for all output formats. The question remains, however, why this
is an issue now but not when xvidcore_2:1.3.5-1 was uploaded?
