That's two different issues.  Noexec was brought up, I just mentioned
that allowing exec in home is a security risk.  I don't know if the
original poster really needs to do have a ~/bin/.  There are ways and
means of avoiding needing ~/bin/, for some things.  It's safer not to
have home mounted exec, but some might have to.
