Will the PAX options function fine now with RedHat 9?

I am running Red Hat 9 server and the latest glib etc... (through up2date), I've not tried since mid November when the whole thing crashed with PAX problems.

So my question is anyone running RedHat 9 with latest RedHat supplied glibc* and 2.4.23 with Grsecurity patch with PAX options enabled?

in general, if you're not running the vanilla kernel, you need a proper port of the patches to your vendor kernel, otherwise things will likely not work out. to my knowledge noone did such a port to RedHat yet.
