I'm on the fence about whether aa-enabled, and eventually aa-exec,
should live in /bin or /usr/bin.

libapparmor is in /lib (at least that's true in Ubuntu) so I think
aa-enabled and aa-exec are fine to go into /bin. I just don't have a
good feel for if they'll be used enough in early boot to justify living
in /bin. Any thoughts?
