Thanks! But isn't this mean you forbid all Linux distributions (including
commercial ones like RedHat) to be GrSec/PaX subscribers (in case they
like to spend some money for it)? I.e. this decision will ensure majority
of Linux systems will never ever have GrSec/PaX (yeah, in theory some
RedHat user may subscribe and manually recompile own kernel, but we all
knows this never happens - at large at least, but very likely at all)?
