-a task,always audits everything

I added the following to audit.rules in RHEL4 U4 x86_64:

-a task,always

I expected this to have a similar effect to auditing the fork, vfork and
clone system calls. However, it seems to either audit everything itself,
or cause all the filtering to be removed from my other audit rules
(which audit pretty much everything).

Is this expected behaviour, or a bug?

Thanks,

Matt
