 From what I am seeing, I was talking about the msg= field which I am 
seeing is missing values ...

here is an example of what we used to see before, and what I am seeing 
now with the lspp.12 kernel ...
Notice that in the first record there is a <msg=groudel> field, while in 
the second record, it is <msg='op=deleting group>.

type=USER_CHAUTHTOK msg=audit(1142347489.501:5273): user pid=12084 uid=0 
auid=0 msg='groupdel: op=deleting group acct=laf_z 
exe="/usr/sbin/groupdel" (hostname=?, addr=?, terminal=pts/1 res=success)'

type=USER_CHAUTHTOK msg=audit(1142347489.501:5273): user pid=12084 uid=0 
auid=0 msg='op=deleting group acct=laf_z exe="/usr/sbin/groupdel" 
(hostname=?, addr=?, terminal=pts/1 res=success)'
