Hi Chris, I resolved the confusion.  sys-auth/polkit is a rewrite of
sys-auth/policykit which was removed from the tree.  I looked at the
policies provided by selinux-policykit and it looks like, despite the
fact that they still use the same names _policykit_ it does properly
target polkit.  I even checked with Fedora 15 for good measure.  Same
thing there.  The upshot is that the policy should *not* be removed.

Thanks for catching that.
