ISTR that there's a good reason for this behavior, but I can't remember what
it is. Ian, Brian?

Hi,
I am cleaning bugs open in gentoo for mesa and i found one with patch
attached
to it, which is applicable upstream.

Patch just allows us to to disable writable relocations in gl. It is "must"
for users using PaX and others. For more detailed rationale please look onto
bug in our bugzilla [1]

Jeremy Huddleston created the patch i attach here and it really fixes the
problem.

So my question is, could you consider applying this for 7.6 7.7 and trunk?

Cheers

Tomas
