Re: gnat 4.1.0 stack overflow on Fedora Core 5

I made the mistake of upgrading from Fedora Core 4 to Fedora Core 5 and
now a number of programs are broken, including gnat:

Updating Fedora 4 with the latest security fixes would also have broken Gnat. The immediate workaround is "echo 9 > /proc/sys/kernel/exec-shield". To make the workaround survive a reboot, put "kernel.exec-shield = 9" in /etc/sysctl.conf. See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=187853 for the details.
