I think most systems don't have mlock available for mortal users. Right? A better approach is to simply encrypt pages that are swapped out (either all swap, or configurable per user or per process). I think Markus Friedl implemented that for OpenBSD, and wrote a paper about it. I have no idea how hard it would be on the HURD. I guess the code would live somewhere in the (default) pager.
