I'm aware of the inability to fully support PaX on mips. It does give
some support, mainly in the Address Space Layout Randomization bit, so
it's better than nothing, imho. The binutils patch for this support in
gentoo isn't targetted at mips anyways, it's applied for all the
supported architectures.
