The MAP_ARRAY access goes through an external function call, which gives you a nice place to hook for mitigations. And this stuff is going to have to be fixed properly, as running sandboxed untrusted code in a higher context is waaayyy to useful in a post Moore's law world. Kernels like XOK relied on similar techniques up and down their system call layer; it had three different virtual machines.
