-Yes, but you may have to patch it by yourself. You can download the patches from

+Usually we release a new version of hardened sources not long after a new
+PaX/Grsecurity patch isreleased, so the best option is just waiting a bit for
+the kernel team to adapt the patches and then test them. Anyway if you are very
+impatient, you can download the patches from
+<uri>http://grsecurity.net/download.php</uri> and try to patch the sources
+yourself. Keep in mind, though, that we won't support kernel sources out of the
+tree.
