Of course it will work in this case. Please notice that I'm not the man
who suggested to mount /tmp noexec (by the way if you do, xmkmf will not
work). I'm the man who said that -x- attribute still will be in place
*even if you will mount system with noexec* because somebody suggested
to use 'noexec' for mounting vfat partitions and getting no 'x'
attribute on files.
