Hi,

Thanks for the report. The problem is that these are large functions
(there are a lot of basic blocks) and the entropy plugin instruments all basic blocks.
I think the solution is to skip these functions which contain more than n basic blocks.
Sorry, I haven't time to fix this bug. PaX Team will fix it in PaX.
