The problem with this approach is that most of the INSTALLING instructions are identical for the two cases, so there would be a lot of duplication. I suppose you could just split the BUILDING instructions and leave the INSTALLING instructions alone, but then you have multiple files that have to be read to do a build and install.

Anyway, this is a lot of trouble for an option that we don't really support (using SELinux as a separately loaded module rather than building it into the kernel), so we could just drop these instructions entirely.
