Which one?  The introduction of CONFIG_BINFMT_ELF_AOUT or having it and
CONFIG_BINFMT_AOUT disabled by default - or both?

Yes, you had proposed the same thing that Willy did - to introduce
CONFIG_BINFMT_ELF_AOUT but have it default to enabled, and to not
change any other defaults.  I simply haven't had the time (nor
motivation since this almost defeats the purpose of the patch) to
re-arrange the patch for that yet, so I decided to post what I readily
had first for public comment.  I should have mentioned this past
discussion in my posting, sorry.

Thanks,

Alexander
