Honestly, judging your level of expertise by this email i would advice 
not running rawhide or exec-shield. It's not 'blessed' software, nor is 
it 'known to work'. It's not even 'beta' software! It's not called 
'bleeding-edge' for nothing ;-)

If you read the docs & anouncements for exec-shield, you'll notice it's 
possible to set a per-file flag for non-exec shield as well (w/ lsattr, 
chattr). It would be posible to disable exec-shield protection on those 
progs that crash without disableling it system-wide
