Looking into this more closely, I believe this is another manifestation
of:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=543915#17

which was ultimately traced down to two issues:
1) A missing offset check in libsepol (fixed in libsepol 2.0.38), and
2) A bug / lack of binary mode support in the fmemopen implementation in
glibc that was later fixed, see:
http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=6544

Maybe you have the older glibc still?

Looking at the libsemanage code though, I think we could in fact avoid
any dependency on fmemopen by using the native libsepol support for
operating on a memory region via sepol_policy_file_set_mem(), ala:
