Thanks, I'll take care of it today.  The problem is most likely due to the 
"netlabel: Cleanup ..." patch as it needs to relocate the smack_host_label() 
function higher in the source file as it is need earlier.

Also, just as a heads-up, I'm going to be posting the labeled networking 
patches for 2.6.30 later this afternoon which should help in the future (they 
are typically pulled in via James' security-testing tree).
