Would not work on a system with multiple policy files:

# ls -l /etc/selinux/targeted/policy/
total 7016
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 3590656 May 31 16:42 policy.32
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 3590656 May 29 08:22 policy.33

# checkpolicy -b -M -F /etc/selinux/targeted/policy/policy.* -o policy.conf
usage:  checkpolicy [-b[F]] [-C] [-d] [-U handle_unknown (allow,deny,reject)] [-M] [-c policyvers (15-33)] [-o output_file|-] [-S] [-O] [-t target_platform (selinux,xen)] [-E] [-V] [input_file]

In EXAMPLES I think it's safe to use policy.33 everywhere.
