python should work with EMUTRAMP enabled only, there's no need to disable
MPROTECT (unless there's more breakage than libffi but then i'd need more
information on it). note also that the above PT_PAX value tries to turn
on EMUTRAMP in softmode (beyond not disabling it in hardmode) but it'll
fail to actually do so since PAGEEXEC/SEGMEXEC are not turned on at the
same time. IOW, paxctl -zx is enough, no need for -zEx.
