The attached patch adds a getscheduler hook function to the SELinux security module. This hook function was previously missing due to an oversight. To apply, save the attachment to ~/module.patch, change to the selinux directory and run 'patch -p1 < module.patch'. Then rebuild and reinstall the LSM kernel with the SELinux module. Thanks to David Wheeler for reporting a problem with running mozilla that ultimately led to the discovery of this bug.

In addition to mozilla problems, this patch fixes problems with sun's java sdks, (and probably other sdks as well) which also conflicted with the nonpatched scheduler. Good catch!
