There was something in the release notes about -no-pie being the standard

Which release notes?

I meant 16.10:  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/YakketyYak/ReleaseNotes, and from there specifically:

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SecurityTeam/PIE

I installed the attached into the Emacs master branch; does it fix the problem? If so, I'll backport it to emacs-25 and ask you to test that.

Works for master; ready to test emacs-25.

For reference, I did a 'git clean -fdx' in the git workdir, autogen, and then I configured the build area with

$ ./config.status --config

'--with-x-toolkit=gtk3' '--with-file-notification=yes' '--with-modules'

$
