Also, note that it's the base-us loop that's mounted noexec (and has been for a long time, AFAIR, that's not PW specific), the actual fuse mount on us is exec friendly .
They must have missed that one (along with "noexec" on /var/local).

But already we are seeing posts about font changes on the Paperwhite:
Code:
/dev/loop/4 /usr/java/lib/fonts cramfs ro,noatime,nodiratime 0 0
So unless the system has another look-up place for alternate fonts, we still get to write up that "HowTo Read and Rebuild cramFS" image files.

One starting point (with its included README file):
http://sourceforge.net/projects/cramfs/
But the tools should be available with any Linux distro.

I don't know if a cramFS image can be bspatched - I never heard of anyone trying it.
