(I'm going through old bug reports that unfortunately weren't resolved
at the time.)

It looks like this was fixed in:

commit 44ed8f6555288f00b982f21e68ac5a51372279de
Author:     Eli Zaretskii <eliz <at> gnu.org>
AuthorDate: Sun Apr 4 10:10:00 2021 +0300

And the unexec build seems to work OK for me still, so I'm closing this
bug report.  (If there's more to be done here, please respond to the
debbugs address and we'll reopen.)
