needlessly executable stack markings

Status in “openjdk-6” package in Ubuntu: Triaged

Bug description:
Java is marked to have an executable stack[1].  This is potentially dangerous, and is simply an oversight from one of the compiled assembly files.  Adding stack markings to the assembly solves the issue.
