the trouble was in the context quoting then ... it sounded like you were proposing PaX by default i am a fan of things that "just work" though which is why i was happy to merge the fortify source code. most of that checking is done at compile time, so the runtime overhead is generally small. and in terms of packages that did break, it was (more often than not) because they were broken already but we never noticed. -mike
