PAX can't be fully supported on MIPS anyway; the architecture doesn't have a no-exec flag in it's pages.
PAX docs are bullshit btw. execution proection doesn't require a split TLB and anyway, the MIPS uTLBs are split.

I'm aware of the inability to fully support PaX on mips. It does give some support, mainly in the Address Space Layout Randomization bit, so it's better than nothing, imho. The binutils patch for this support in gentoo isn't targetted at mips anyways, it's applied for all the supported architectures.
