I committed a(n incorrect) patch to not clear the sticky bit, then
removed it. There are still platforms which use the sticky bit on
executables to leave them resident in memory after exit(), despite my
initial research not showing such.

I don't see any harm in allowing users to set the sticky bit, but it's
definitely something we need to all discuss before the behvaior
changes.
