What about denying access to the dmesg in a jail? I noticed in the run
of the periodic scripts in jails that I can see the segfaults of
programs in other jails (stock -current, but I haven't seen such a
privilege in your list of allowed privileges for a jail). A quick test
revealed that I'm able to see the complete dmesg.

From an user point of view I don't want to get confused by broken stuff
in a jail of someone else (shared hosting) and I don't want to let
other people know what programs I run (in case they are failing).

Bye,
Alexander.
