The diffs all are related to the order of operations in a DROP OWNED BY
command, so I think blaming SELinux is just blaming the messenger.
This comes down to the point that we didn't do anything to ensure
drop order stability in shdepend-driven drops. Maybe we need to be
honest about that. Or do you have reason to think that your changes
will result in stability in that drop order anyway? If so, why?
