| Ah, then it is that the distribution changed criteria. First

| they published with the patch, then without.

| Maybe D. Hugh can report a bug.



One step further along this path:

- Fedora 38's Alpine has ^W^X
- Fedora 39's Alpine does not have it

Here's the changelog from Fedora 39. Newest to oldest. I stopped when
the changes were also in the Fedora 38 changelog.

This changelog refers to bugzilla entry

Is this change reasonable? I'm also looking at
