I don't remember if I mentioned this somewhere before or only thought it, but:

That way we don't end up with NOT_PUX_ASLR_SAFE and NOT_PEX_ASLR_SAFE and so on as we discover other OSes' differing implementations but can handle them under the hood. then there's agc's objection to negative boolean variables, which I tend to agree with; instead of NOT_PAX_MPROTECT_SAFE=yes it would be nicer to have in packages PAX_MPROTECT_SAFE=no and if we're going to change this it should be now and shouldn't wait :-/ -- David A.
