hi,   cool article--- a nice extension of existing return-to-libc
literatrue.  something make me wonder if i fully understand u thuogh:

The goal of this text is to show that unlike some folks would like you to believe the move to x86
architecture really does open up new avenues of exploitation for OSX systems.

what is the new avenue? return-to-libc was possible on powerpc too?
and not specific to osx?
seems to me that x86 osx has fewer "avenues of exploitation" than powerpc osx.
