SUIDGuard prevents some apps from starting #11

I took me a while since I discovered that games like Flatout2 or DirtShowdown won't start anymore.

Message: kernel[0]: SUIDGuard: disallowed execution of binary without a __PAGEZERO segment

Is this a problem of the games or of SUIDGuard?

The support says the following: "Due to how our eON technology works, this is normal - the zeropage simply becomes part of our EON_RESERVE segment. All of our games are built in this manner. This is not a bug in our code, rather it is an assumption by the author of suidguard which happens to clash."

Many Cider & other apps that go through emulation layers depend on __PAGEZERO and thus will fail to execute with this kext installed.
