Well since you brought it up,   I believe there should be an alias in here.

So if this policy is installed you have squid_script_exec_t otherwise 
alias all files to bin_t.  So the system can work if the policy is 
enabled or disabled.


All file types defined in policy  should have an alias for enabled and 
disabled policy.

Even if they default to default_t.
