Description of problem:
Look, UT2004 demo can't { read ioctl } the event device.
Is this a capability that should be added to user_t?

audit(1107767201.508:0): avc:  denied  { read } for  pid=9006
exe=/home/phantom/ut2004demo/System/ut2004-bin name=event0 dev=tmpfs
ino=6370 scontext=user_u:user_r:user_t
tcontext=system_u:object_r:event_device_t tclass=chr_file

I am going to allow base_user apps to read event_device_t.  I don't know of any
security implications of this.

Hmm, if you say it's okay...
