There's a good chance the action in question isn't an accident and some aspect 
of the program's functionality will be changed.  I think it's best to have an 
idea of what the issue was before putting in a dontaudit rule, if some 
configuration of that program actually needs such functionality then a 
dontaudit will make it inconvenient to track it down.

Have you tried running strace or ltrace to see what it's doing?
