You are correct, I went in my BIOS, and disabled execute bit.

Then when I run the test C code, the get "trapped" just as expected
 on both 8.1 amd64 and CURRENT amd64
however World of warcraft still segfaults even though execute bit is
disabled in BIOS.

I guess I am just confused on how linux fixed this with this patch
