The target builds a modified booleans, if use booleans as is, we start
down the config c file
rabbit hole...

external/selinux/libselinux/src/booleans.c:100: error: undefined
reference to 'selinux_booleans_subs_path'
external/selinux/libselinux/src/booleans.c:388: error: undefined
reference to 'selinux_booleans_path'
external/selinux/libselinux/src/booleans.c:529: error: undefined
reference to 'selinux_booleans_path'
external/selinux/libselinux/src/booleans.c:545: error: undefined
reference to 'selinux_booleans_path'
clang++.real: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to
see invocation)

I can take a look at that and see how much of a PITA it would be to
pull that in.
