Note that TestProxy is failing too, which does seem to indicate a problem with
ffi closures.
boehm-gc does have code to call mprotect() on its heap (see PROTECT/UNPROTECT in
os_dep.c), but it isn't used because we don't build the GC with MPROTECT_VDB.
It sounds like, if the heap is now not exec-enabled by default, that the GC will
have to unconditionally call mprotect() in order to set PROT_EXEC when
initializing its heap?
cc'ing Hans for his comments.
