<listitem><para>Revamped grsecurity/PaX support. There is now only a single
general-purpose distribution kernel and the configuration interface has been
streamlined. Desktop users should be able to simply set
<programlisting>security.grsecurity.enable = true</programlisting> to get
a reasonably secure system without having to sacrifice too much
functionality. See <xref linkend="sec-grsecurity" /> for documentation
