I've attached a patch for strace that makes it understand the security() 
system call for i386 and the SE Linux system calls.  I've added full support 
for all the common SE Linux calls (every one for which I could find a program 
to strace) and partial support for the rest.

People who want to add support for other LSM based systems shouldn't find it 
too difficult with this as an example.

For the Debian people, I'd like to see something derived from this be in the 
standard Debian package of strace in the near future.  I know that I have 
portability issues to fix first (any suggestions on where to start will be 
welcome).
