[Crash-utility] submission about PaX linux support

[Toshikazu Nakayama]

Hello Dave,

I would like to send proposed patch set which can support
PaX linux introduced at http://grsecurity.net/ over crash utility.

In previous thread, you said that it is important for current implementation
not to be increased maintenance burden.

Then, I tolerably think to consider about them in my merge work with
small modifications to current code as possible.
But the reality is, there are several undesirable impacts which
I made in this work.

So could you please check and make a conclusion from this patch set?
(Detail about modification are written in each patch file.)

Thanks,
Toshi
