    In short, no.
    OpenWall does some nice tricky things to do it's non-executable stack
    work.  That stuff can't easily be put into a module (or it could, but I
    don't see how to easily.)  Some of the other things OpenWall does
    (restrict /tmp and other odds and ends) might just fit in.
    
    Now there's the fact that there isn't a OpenWall patch against 2.4.x to
    see if this really is the case :)
