Hey Steve,

I do not believe these messages are implemented, or at least are not 
properly used, in semanage. Doing semanage user changes or semanage 
login changes only result in USER_ROLE_CHANGE messages.

'semanage user -d deleteme_u' yeilds:

type=USER_ROLE_CHANGE msg=audit(1153152594.356:685): user pid=10862 
uid=0 auid=0 subj=root:staff_r:staff_t:s0-s15:c0.c255 msg='op=delete 
SELinux user record acct=deleteme_u old-seuser=? old-role=? old-range=? 
new-seuser=? new-role=? new-range=? exe=/usr/sbin/semanage (hostname=?, 
addr=?, terminal=pts/2 res=success)'

This is seen with policycoreutils-1.30.17-2.

Thanks,
Mike
