Oddly enough, it works on my system (which is f42 but new audit code). But 
when I list the rules to make sure, it reverse the fields to always,exclude - 
which I think is the preferred way.

Is there a pointer to the test suite? I'll check on a rawhide system. This 
would be odd if the same code works on F42 and not rawhide.
