That's not the point. Right now you can't even run just a postgresql
build on a machine that doesn't have selinux enabled, let alone run the
regression tests. And if we construct the regression gadget at
postgresql build time, who is to say it has the right settings for the
run time environment, given that the build is apparently dependent on a
runtime kernel setting?
