It's also important to see if there are any callers of
cond_list_destroy() which incorrectly might be making use of
policydb::cond_list after it has been freed; thankfully that does not
appear to be the case in any of the call paths I looked at just now.
As this is more a a style/Right-Thing-To-Do patch and not an immediate
bugfix I'm going to go and merge this into selinux/next.

Thanks Vratislav.
