But both of these systems are x86_64 systems.

More exactly, why doesn't x86_64 need execmem?  Firefox does
apparently allocate memory that is both executable and writeable on
x86_64 systems too.

Yes, that makes firefox runnable again.  But if possible I would
prefer to have it turned off.  And it does work with it turned off on
the fresh install, so I guess there is some way to do it.
