The problem happens with fedora-extras programs also. Ppracer would not 
start before execstack -s was performed on the library. I ra

  ppracer
ppracer: error while loading shared libraries: libGL.so.1: cannot enable 
executable stack as shared object requires: Permission denied
[jim at cornette-lt ~]$ locate libGL.so.1
/usr/lib/libGL.so.1
/usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2

  execstack -c /usr/lib/libGL.so.1 allowed ppracer to start. The 
performance was pretty poor though with a radeon and oss driver.

Section "Device"
         Identifier  "Videocard0"
         Driver      "radeon"
         VendorName  "Videocard vendor"
         BoardName   "ATI Technologies Inc Radeon Mobility U1"
