After reading Steve's info about the "comm" field being

If the event below is where it came from, then it originated in user space and
is not subject to the 16 byte kernel limitation.
The same event in ausearch shows a NULL "comm" field, but
the rest of
the info lines up with the GUI:
The user space AVCs are FUBAR and I told the SE Linux people that they are not
following the audit logging convention. They need to fix the code in
libselinux.
