Only 4hours? ;-) SCNR ...

It's since day 1 so (and that day is quite sometime ago) - and we all
ran into that at one point.
Sry, I fear you will have to cope with it ...

In an ideal world, the Kernel emits errors via dmesg in such
situations (i.e. the selinux subsystem) - perhaps in some
way configurable (and I had my fair share of grep-ing through
countless lines of selinux error messages to find the really
relevant ones for one given application/process/situation/...).

MfG,

PS: JftSoC: I find the errno's quite coarse too but it's the
    way it is ....
