I thought we had ASLR switched on on GNU/Linux builds?

If unexec is used on GNU/Linux, Emacs is supposed to switch ASLR off by using "setfattr -n user.pax.flags -v er temacs", and if that doesn't work by using the personality syscall and then re-execing itself (see maybe_disable_address_randomization).

I doubt whether it's worth spending much time debugging the problem, since nobody uses unexec on GNU/Linux any more.
