- As I said before, it also has severe problems with memory protection,
- causing every second program to crash immediately, notably my login shell.

- Since mh3 was quite ok and only mh4 crashes it must be either the 'fselect
- doesn't need spl7() anymore' patch, or the story with sticky text segments.
- Since I doubt it's the first one, I presume it's the second one. The thing
- I don't understand is that I understood it that way that all this is only
- enabled if an executable has the sticky bit set on execution. None of mine
- has is, but it crashed anyway. It's even more mysterious as not all programs
- crash, but I fail to recognize a rule in there.
