just a heads up, the latest PaX patch should work with lguest under KERNEXEC
thanks to andrewg's work (if the code doesn't compile it's all my fault, i didn't
test my cleaned up version ;). the solution is not ideal in that lguest's flat
ring-0 segments are kept as is and that's obviously not good for KERNEXEC, but
i'll let you guys refine this further.

what's the issue there? does that CPU have an NX bit? is it enabled? what happens
when you boot a PAE/PaX kernel? does vanilla/PAE work?
