Fix released for Edgy a while ago, but none for dapper, so I've attached a debdiff between libgcrypt11_1.2.2-1 and libgcrypt11_1.2.2-1.1, with 1.1 adding a non-executable stack.

This is marked for dapper-updates. It helps security, but does not fix any vulnerability. It helps security on both x86-64 and i386 with NX bit, probably on every other platform capable of enforcing PROT_EXEC properly as well.
