Need some help with a patch for new command --warn-execstack for ld

[Magnus Granberg <zorry at gentoo dot org>]

Hi

This patch started in the gcc-patches ml http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2010-05/msg00352.html
Have move the warning from gcc to ld now. Need some help with.
1. To get the object file .o (Y in the patch).
2. To get the symbol or function that need the execstack (X in the patch).

/Magnus
