Well, it's just *some* popular implementations. I will add a note on
grsecurity in the next revision of the draft.

That's not the case here. (And I wasn't even aware of that "denial"
you mention).

I'd be glad to include a section on both grsec and selinux. If you
point me a good reference to each of them, that might speed up the
process quite a bit. ;-)

Kind regards,
