http://cvs.fedoraproject.org/viewvc/F-11/upstart/ does not seem
to have any SELinux patches, and
http://cvs.fedoraproject.org/viewvc/EL-5/ does not have any
upstart packages (I do not see a repository for RHEL-6).
I am going to send in the patch to the SELinux devel list for
comment, and there are a lot of Red Hat folks over there.
