Bravo! It even says 'unlabeled' (wrong spelling you see, though I know 
that is not your fault, relax - I won't blame you for that). I assume 
that meaningless secmark number was 0, is that correct?

My guess would be that whoever needed it would have been using the 
kernel functions to do anything meaningful with it, unless, of course, a 
simple check for does it/does it not have SELinux context defined (i.e. 
secmark<>0).
