Since we now use assembler for some routines for amd64, atleast
the md5-x86_64.s/o file are not marked as not needing an
executable stack.  This looks like it needs a rewrite of
crypto/md5/asm/md5-x86_64.pl to atleast take an argument of which
target platform it is, so that we can properly mark it as such.
