I think most systems don't have mlock available for mortal users.
Right?

A better approach is to simply encrypt pages that are swapped out
(either all swap, or configurable per user or per process).

I think Markus Friedl implemented that for OpenBSD, and wrote a paper
about it. I have no idea how hard it would be on the HURD. I guess the
code would live somewhere in the (default) pager.
