NX support in Windows Server 2003?

Does Windows Server 2003 currently support the NX bit from AMD's 64-bit CPUs? If not, does anyone know about when it might be supported?
 
Just to nitpick but NX isn't overrun protection, it's execution protection. The overrun still happens and the app crashes, the only difference is that pages marked NX aren't executable so it's much harder to exploit the overrun.
