OK, I went back to the original discussion with Steve Grubb and Matthew
Bobrowski who asked for FS_OPEN_EXEC_PERM and AFAICT this change in
uselib() should be fine wrt usescases we discussed. That doesn't mean there
cannot be some userspace which will get broken by this (in which case we'd
have to revert or find some other solution) but I'm willing to try. I'm
also CCing Steve & Matthew for input but from my side feel free to add:
