How about an idea that allows to launch environment checker (typically shell 
scripts) prior
to regression tests?

The following stuffs should be preconfigured to run sepgsql's regression test.
- SELinux must be run and configured to enforcing mode.
- The sepgsql-regtest policy module must be loaded.
- The boolean of sepgsql_regression_test_mode must be turned on.
- The psql command should be labeled as 'bin_t'

If checkinstall optionally allows to launch an environment checker on 
regression test,
we may be possible to suggest users to fix up their configuration. It seems to 
me quite
helpful.

For example, one idea is to inject a dummy variable (mostly, initialized to 
empty) as
dependency of installcheck, being available to overwrite in Makefile of 
contrib, as follows:

  # against installed postmaster
  installcheck: submake $(REGRESS_PRE)
          $(pg_regress_installcheck) $(REGRESS_OPTS) $(REGRESS)
