Urgh, yes, point.  Well, we could test that it errors out correctly. :)

Another thought might be to allow the "check if a module is loaded
before doing things" to be a postgresql.conf option that is disabled in
the regression testing..  If you can modify postgresql.conf you can
remove the module anyway..  Interesting question as to if we should
auto-fail queries against objects which have labels when no security
module is loaded.  Have we discussed that yet?
