This is bad actually. It reveals some bad design in Axiom internals,
since Axiom is clearly user-land software, it has nothing to do
with system protective features. In plain words, Axiom is broken.

This may come from GCL or other tools, but it makes no difference,
"use another compiler, not the broken one". Being system administrator,
I'm suspicious to users, that ask for reduced security, I don't turn
them off, if I have them already. So do others.
If Axiom requires it, so worse to Axiom, unfortunatly.
