Ankur Sinha reported a SELinux message about an unsafe memory access in 
Wine.

Does that enable this access pattern for every program ran by Wine,
or for just the one he tried?

The real question here is 'is it in general safe to enable this'.
Since Wine is that it is running multiple programs, it may be
a bad idea to tell SELinux it's OK, unless people agree that there are 
no serious security consequences. I am not sure, and I haven't enabled 
it on my system.

Please feel free to redirect this away from Fedora devel list.
