Will fix the context, then delete the files.  We are investigating how 
do handle this better.  Also
some of the bad contexts are not really bad, IE the tools not smart 
enough to realize that the context is
valid.   Setfiles is just reporting files that don't match the regular 
expessions in the file_contexts file.

So cache files created by mozilla get marked as bad even though they are 
valid.
