Subject: Re: [announce] [patch] NX (No eXecute) support for x86,   2.6.7-rc2-bk2

this is how the maps look like on distributions that dont have the 
PT_GNU_STACK:

 ffffe000-fffff000 ---p 00000000 00:00 0

so we can turn on NX safely - all but the library/binary .data areas are
executable. (and if any code assumes executability there then it
deserves that SEGFAULT ...)
