Scripts can still be run under noexec as /bin/sh is in a partition
mounted exec, so long as you run it with /bin/sh in front. It will
break many scripts however.

I intend to come up with some wrapper for interpreters to respect
noexec, though I'm sure it will piss me off a little at times, haha. I
believe grsecurity actually has a knob that prevents even scripts
running at all under non "trusted paths".

I wouldn't trade OpenBSD for grsecurity though ever, btw.

Yeah, generally noone seems interested, though I did see it on the list
of CESG required improvements for whatever level it was for Linux
despite some of their policy being flawed in much more important ways,
haha.
