Thanks for catching this.
I'm CC'ing the audit list on this because they get nervous when people
start changing the audit records. However, I'll ack this patch because
I think the previous behavior was incorrect and this should be
considered a bugfix.

If you as the user of the audit system understand how that message is
being used its totally up to you to when it is safe and not safe to
change it. I only get nervous when the audit system itself wants to
make/force changes to users of the subsystem.
