Subject: [refpolicy] interface typos

Could you please add to the feature-list for the policy compilation tools a
feature to refuse an interface which requires a type that isn't defined in the
matching .te file?

I just wasted an hour because of a typo in an interface. :(

With CIL, refpolicy will become a proper language with a proper
compiler. So syntax errors like typos will be caught.
