From dealing with this for arch bringups I know there are quite a few,
but likely in the high teens/low 20s in number, of packages that use
execstack. Not sure what feature it provides as I've never been
bothered enough to look into it but it's generally used at build time
not install time which means it won't be picked up by repoquery.
we can query buildrequires:
repoquery --repoid=rawhide-source --archlist=src --whatrequires prelink
