So it isn't really an RPM check then, rather an external check on
files choosen by RPM.  Thanks for the explanation!

There seems to be something more involved, though.  When doing
"rpm -Va" I get complaints about a few files.  Doing restorecon
doesn't change anything.  See below for /etc/idmapd.conf as an
example.

My rpm is from FC3 while SELinux-packages are from FC4 test, in case
this could be a compatibility issue.

I would like to understand what is going on here.
