[gentoo-hardened] Re: Giving a hand with docs

[klondike]

Well for now I have written a 12 page doc praying the goodness of
Gentoo Hardened.

On that document I explain how two common attacks (Buffer overflow and
Null Pointer Dereference exploit) work and the implications they have.
After that I expose how the toolchain improvements act against them
and expose, along with that, other kernel protection methods provided
by grsecurity. Finally I expose a table with an estimation of the new
risk of an attack after enabling them and write a few lines about the
possible incompatibilities which may arise.

I hope you like it and would also like your comments.

Also ask for excuses because maybe the document has a few imprecisions
or white lies due to a bad understanding, feel free to outline them
to.
