no what bothers me that on the one hand you want no execute from the
partition, and AT THE SAME TIME want stuff to execute from there (being
libraries or binaries, same thing to me). That duality feels strange to
me, I could understand if you wanted noexec to be MORE strict; I fail to
understand why you want it LESS strict!
What breaks?
