* elf/rtld.c (dl_main): In rtld_is_main case, reinitialize

	GL(dl_stack_flags) according to rtld's own PT_GNU_STACK.
	Move GL(dl_make_stack_executable_hook) initialization up.
	* elf/tst-execstack-prog.c: New file.
	* elf/Makefile (tests-execstack-yes): Add it.
	(LDFLAGS-tst-execstack-prog): New variable.
