Mod to Makefile for reiserfs

Mod to Makefile for reiserfs

[Dale Amon]

I'm about to try labeling a reiserfs disk... wish
me luck. 

Also, I note that in the relabel and reset sections
of the Makefile, the expression fed to awk will have
to be modified to:

	/ext[23]|reiserfs/

However this gets messy because even at best (assuming
they work!) the new patches are only going to be 
present if someone goes to the trouble of finding and
installing them. 

Is there any way to deal with this other than just
telling folk "If you use the reiserfs patch on your
kernel, you'll have to edit the selinux Makefile"?

Why not just tell them to do "setfiles file_contexts/file_contexts /" instead 
of changing the Makefile.

If someone is capable of getting those ReiserFS patches working then it 
shouldn't be difficult for them to manage this.
