execstack is now built for rawhide and F23, and dependent packages
have been either rebuilt. I changed BuildRequires: prelink to
BR: /usr/bin/execstack everywhere. Some packages were not using
execstack anymore; for those I removed the dependency.
This issue is closed for now.

PS. pypy does not build because of other issues. pypy3 builds fine.
