Guess what? It does.  It also supports exec-shield.
chpax - user-space utility to control PaX flags
gradm - Administration program for the GrSecurity ACL system
gradm2 - Administration program for the grsecurity2 RBAC based ACL system
kernel-patch-2.4-grsecurity - grsecurity kernel patch - 2.4.x security patch
kernel-patch-grsecurity2 - grsecurity kernel patch - new major upstream version
paxctl - user-space utility to control PaX flags - new major upstream version
paxtest - Test suite for the PaX kernel patch
kernel-patch-adamantix - Kernel patches introduced in Adamantix
kernel-patch-exec-shield - Protection against stack smashing and other attacks.

Is there someone else that is more concerned with fixing problems than 
being an asshole that I can talk to about this problem?
