You say that as if the community *enjoys* rewriting large amounts of
perfectly acceptable code and constantly answering "Help my game
disappears as soon as I click Play" type questions. If you're willing to
deal with the aftermath of breaking such a fundamental API then that's
fine but please don't make the rest of us do it ...

I think PaX belongs in a custom Hardened Ubuntu type distro, and it'll
work well there. I don't think it belongs in a mainstream desktop
distribution. Sorry.
