  type=SOCKETCALL msg=audit(1123685491.877:78): nargs=6 a0=4 a1=bf8ce47c a2=10 a3=0 a4=bf8d0618 a5=c
  type=SOCKADDR msg=audit(1123685491.877:78): saddr=100000000000000000000000
  type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1123685491.877:78): arch=40000003 syscall=102 success=no exit=-22 a0=b a1=bf8cc320 a2=80510f8 a3=bf8d0618 items=0 pid=1426 auid=4294967295 uid=0 gid=0 euid=0 suid=0 fsuid=0 egid=0 sgid=0 fsgid=0 comm="auditctl" exe="/sbin/auditctl"
  type=SELINUX_ERR msg=audit(1123685491.877:78): SELinux:  unrecognized netlink message type=1009 for sclass=49

But it, and about four other similar ones, seem just as
incomprehensible.  ;-)

I might guess that it's something to do with /sbin/auditctl, but I don't
really know.
