We believe if a toolchain supports PT_GNU_STACK that it sets the proper
PHDR permissions.  Therefor elf_read_implies_exec() should only be true
if we don't see PT_GNU_STACK set.

* Rebased patch on paulus/merge tree which picked up an older patch to fixed
  elf_read_implies_exec() on pure PPC32 systems but not in the way we desired.

Paul, lets try this one for .30.
