I think your declaration is wrong:

Try this instead:

type netif_eth0_t, netif_type;
sid netif gen_context(system_u:object_r:netif_eth0_t,s0 - mls_systemhigh)

The syntax error signals that you interface call does not exists
corenet_tcp_sendrecv_eth0_if

That would make sense, since the declaration was wrong (non existant)

.. Although i am not sure, it has been a long time since i tried it.

Not sure about this one. sorry. Did you test it?
