So if I understand correctly you are suggesting we restrict the
declaration of policycaps to base.  I have a version of the patch
set that does this--attempting to set a policycap in a module other
than base results in a syntax error from checkpolicy.  If that is
how we want to proceed I can send it out, the differences from the
last one are minor as you might expect.
