All machines, all policies, all rpm's earlier than rpm-4.3.3. The
problem is one of
mix-n-match, not any specific flaw.
Dunno about "unconfined_t" symptom, dwalsh knows the problem details

Look for Smalley's rpm_execcon patch post in September for the last

and analysis of the causes if you wish to understand the gory details to
confirm the problem.
