Cause it sounds like a user type was not successfully added to the on-disk
policy. Running "semanage user -l" shows that neither guest_u or xguest_u exist.

I think this indicates a problem with libsemanage or selinux policy. And by the
terseness of the error messages, I wonder if there's enough information to
diagnose *why* this failed. An errno might be useful here.
