Package: x264
Severity: important
X-Debbugs-Cc: ardb@kernel.org

Dear Maintainer,

When building x264 for the armhf architecture, the resulting package contains a build of libx264.so that has a PT_GNU_STACK ELF program header that identifies the shared object as requiring an executable stack. This is a bad idea from security pov, and only seems to affect the armhf build (the arm64 build is fine).
