I have seen that the binary policy file (policy.15) have "15" as version

The change done in the sysvinit package load the policy as:
/sbin/load_policy /etc/security/selinux/policy.15, right?
If yes, a change in the version of the checkpolicy, I have that change
the sysvinit too ?


The file /selinux/policyvers has the version.  A future version of sysvinit 
will examine that file to determine which (of possibly many) policy databases 
should be loaded.

Maybe Dan's rpm has this already, I haven't checked.

Yes the current patch used security_policyvers from libselinux to determine the policy version.
