I haven't checked the options above, but the organisation I worked at
used grsecurity extensivly, also on alpha. When I left, one machine
become a headless server which was configured even tighter than
before. The only difference might be, that the latest kernel used was
probably a late 2.4.2x, not (yet) 2.4.3x, but that should not make a
difference.

That would be very helpful indeed.

None that I know of, but with grsecurity in general you can configure
your system too tight, so I assume that to be a general problem, but
without logs ...
