The problem with -rmap is that adding PaX support to it is not a trivial exercise and since we're not using it, there's little motivation to spend time on it. On the other hand we'll eventually have to write a 2.6 port at which point we'll have to face -rmap (i'd say that by the end of this year). Also, -rmap for 2.4 exists both as a standalone patch and in the RedHat kernels which is not exactly the same - which one should be supported? At least for the RedHat version we believe that supporting a vendor kernel should better be done by the respective vendor itself, not us. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
