Actually, this is happening because virt-aa-helper is exiting with
error. Unfortunately, libvirt does not deal with this in a way that
makes it easy to debug (ie 'Security labelling error').
Eg:
$ cat /tmp/fiddle2.xml | /usr/lib/libvirt/virt-aa-helper -u
libvirt-fd06659e-3354-cb8e-71d9-cfeeff86e60f -c --dryrun
virt-aa-helper: warning: path does not exist, skipping file type checks
14:07:38.643: warning : virDomainDiskDefForeachPath:7672 : Ignoring open
failure on /media/more/isos/ubuntu-10.10-beta-desktop-i386.iso: No such file or

virt-aa-helper: error: /usr/lib/grub-rescue/grub-rescue-floppy.img
virt-aa-helper: error: skipped restricted file

Copying grub-rescue-floppy.img to /tmp and adjusting the XML works as expected:
$ cat /tmp/foo.xml | /usr/lib/libvirt/virt-aa-helper -u
