not currently, but we do not always label all binaries with a context
that can cause a transition.  And theoretically these scripts could be
used by another application.  Just because a script is labeled bin_t and
can be executed by a confined domain, does not mean it adds any privs to
the confined domain.  bin_t apps will execute in the current domain.
