For a bad example of trying to allow alternate security models
look at NetBSD's kauth code :-)

NetBSD also had issues where some 'system call trace' code
was being used to (try to) apply security - unfortunately
it worked by looking at the user-space buffers on system
call entry - and a multithreaded program can easily arrange
to update them after the initial check!
For trace/event type activities this wouldn't really matter,
for security policy it does.
(I've not looked directly at these event points in linux)
