Tresys Technology already has a working implementation of binary policy
modules, including a module abstraction with a dependency model, a
compiler for generating such modules, and a linker for linking them
together with a "base module".  Planned for upstreaming after FC4.  See
their prior posts to the selinux list or their web site for info.
