Andrew,
There is no inherent MMU support in new new OS — there are still too
many problems with incorporating such support into the current operating
system architechture. Unless we are all willing to a total restructuring
of things, which will undoubtedly break almost _all_ existing software, I'm
not sure a memory protection scheme will ever be incorporated, although I
know there are folks who are working hard to prove me wrong. 🙂
