Thanks Aurelien, that's brilliant!

I just tested and it has fixed the problem I saw on kfreebsd-i386.
So this turned out to be:

  * not due to a change in glibc, but the change to gcc-5;
  * specific to i386 CPU architecture;
  * already fixed for linux, just wasn't applied to kfreebsd sysdeps;
  * the failure was in check_consistency();  not directly related to
    executable stacks, but it was called inside a code block that
    tries to enables executable stacks, if some library requests it.
