There was a problem hiding this comment.
I think that leaving at least paxtest and maybe even paxctl makes sense; the former can be used to assess whether vanilla mitigations are able to catch stuff covered by PaX, which I find useful (given the ongoing effort to backport/lift features from grsec/pax).
More then one year ago we removed grsecurity kernels from nixpkgs: NixOS#25277 This removes now also paxutils from stdenv.
