In rawhide/FC5, you would use semanage(8) to configure
the /etc/selinux/$SELINUXTYPE/seusers file (where SELINUXTYPE is defined
by /etc/selinux/config and is targeted by default in Fedora).  Like
this:
	/usr/sbin/semanage login -a -s bar_u foo
Then to list the current settings,
	/usr/sbin/semanage login -l
This manipulates the seusers file in the module store and then
regenerates the installed file; don't edit that file directly.
