svirt on MLS has strange AVC.

I have Static Virtualization working on an MLS box except for this 
strange AVC.

This looks like the kernel is confused?  I believe that all svirt 
processes are running as s0:c1 and yet this AVC indicates svirt_t:s0.c1 
is trying to write to a unix_stream_socket running as 
svirt_t:s0-s15:c0.c1023.

# ps -eZ | grep virt
system_u:system_r:virtd_t:s0-s15:c0.c1023 27344 ? 05:34:47 libvirtd
system_u:system_r:svirt_t:s0:c1 28549 ?        00:00:01 qemu-kvm

Could the kernel be getting confused in to thinking libvirtd is svirt_t?

# ls -lZ /proc/28549/fd/ | grep 4417531
lrwx------. qemu qemu system_u:system_r:svirt_t:s0:c1  17 -> 
socket:[4417531]

  lsof | grep 4417531
qemu-kvm  28549      qemu   17u     unix 0xffff88003e1f7900       0t0    
4417531 /var/lib/libvirt/qemu/xguest.monitor

# lsof /var/lib/libvirt/qemu/xguest.monitor
COMMAND    PID USER   FD   TYPE             DEVICE SIZE/OFF    NODE NAME
qemu-kvm 28549 qemu    3u  unix 0xffff88003a853000      0t0 4417518 
/var/lib/libvirt/qemu/xguest.monitor
qemu-kvm 28549 qemu   17u  unix 0xffff88003e1f7900      0t0 4417531 
/var/lib/libvirt/qemu/xguest.monitor

So it looks like we have a process that is running as both labels?
