Add --nxcompat to the LD flags used to create the distributed binaries for Windows. This enables Data Execution Protection for the Beat which marks data sections as non-executable. Marking memory regions as non-executable means that code cannot be run from that region of memory, which makes it harder for the exploitation of buffer overruns.
