Keeping unexec doesn't mean breaking it .  If we believe someone might
need that configuration, then we should give them a full-fledged
Emacs, not a crippled one.

The patch can easily be tweaked to make the changes conditioned by
HAVE_PDUMPER, so I believe there's no need to argue about this nit:
let's simply remove purespace from the pdumper builds, and leave it
alone in the unexec builds.
