Well my initial idea was to try to see if we could provide an installer
that was able to install a SELinux enabled machine on the first reboot
with all the files properly labeled on disk.
But as said this would require some changes in different components
(udpkg, add a refpolicy udeb,...), so this is maybe a bit premature to
start providing a udeb for libselinux.

This was actually a wild idea and I didn't really checked in depth. So
if somebody is really interested in this, I could have a look otherwise
I'll put this in my longterm TODO list I guess.
