I think you have interpreted the situation backwards. The wxallowed flag is not on other filesystems. Therefore, binaries on those filesystems which misbehave will fail.
There are about 15 programs which need fixing, and the wxallowed could become a piece of history. Unfortunately some of those 15 are very large ecosystems, and their upstreams are not yet concerned about this problem. >Is this a really good idea to keep wxallowed flag on /usr/local by >default?
