-Patch NSIS so that it's installer stubs, produced at NSIS build time,
-do not contain .reloc sections, which will exist by default when using
-binutils/ld 2.36+.
-
-This ultimately fixes an issue when running the installer with the
-"Force randomization for images (Mandatory ASLR)" setting active.
-
-This patch has not yet been sent upstream, because it's not clear if this
-is the best fix, for the underlying issue, which seems to be that makensis
-doesn't account for .reloc sections when it builds installers.
-
-The existence of a reloc section shouldn't be a problem, and, if anything,
-is actually a requirement for working ASLR. All other Windows binaries we
-produce contain them, and function correctly when under the same
-"Force randomization for images (Mandatory ASLR)" setting.
