What has grsecurity to do with debugging?
...
On there home page they write:
# Prevention of arbitrary code execution, regardless of the technique
used (stack smashing, heap corruption, etc)
# Prevention of arbitrary code execution in the kernel
# Randomization of the stack, library, and heap bases
# Kernel stack base randomization
# Protection against exploitable null-pointer dereference bugs in the kernel
E.g. Some buffer overflows will be stopped.
