I think the previous code was doing more - it was merging the local file 
with the shipped base package file, like this:

    data = extract_file_from_policy_package( )
    write_file ( "seusers.final", data )
    if ( data != null ) {
        seusers.clear_cache()  // thereby forcing reload from 
seusers.final when cache() is called again (in merge_components)
    } else {
        seusers.clear()
    }

It's also doing this three times (once for fcontexts, once for seusers, 
once for seusers_extra).
The problem is that you're skipping the link_sandbox call, which builds 
the base package, containing this information.
