bug#8395: ASLR Issue?

I too see this problem trying to build Aquamacs' emacs-24-based branch on Lion 
GM with Xcode 4.1 preview 7.  The problem is *not* an unknown section name.  I 
added some debugging printfs, and this is what I see.  Basically things seem to 
be going OK until we try to write __data, where we get EFAULT when we try to 
write() it.  I don't know why sectp->addr is giving EFAULT; perhaps ASLR?

If I discover more, I will add to the ticket.

As an aside, could emacs switch to an external core image like other lisps use 
instead of continuing to use the fragile unexec mechanism?
