To be fair, the linker isn't deciding to create the RWX segment - it is being 
told to do so by the linker script.  Or rather the script is not giving the
linker enough leeway to create separate code and data segments.

But either way, the thought with the warning message is that it is better
that the developer know (and ignore) about the situation, rather than live
in ignorance.
