File vs. directory matching has changed to avoid ambiguities as well: file 
rules ending in a slash only match directories; file rules not ending in a 
slash only match non-directories, e.g.,

/foo/*		Files in /foo
/foo/**		Files below /foo, at any level

/bar/*/		Directories in /bar
/bar/**/	Directories below /bar, at any level

I guess this is not really news on the apparmor-dev list.
