This is a problem, as discussed last year:

http://linux-nfs.org/pipermail/labeled-nfs/2007-November/000110.html

We can't require the use of a new auth flavor which is incompatible with auth_gss.

auth_seclabel demonstrates the flavor independent changes required for any RPC layer process label transport. A GSS solution is currently under discussion.
