When more than one security module is exporting data to audit and networking sub-systems a single 32 bit integer is no longer sufficient to represent the data. Add a structure to be used instead.

Can this be generalized to avoid hardcoding the names of specific security modules in the field and symbol names? Possibly just an array of secids with the indices dynamically assigned by the infrastructure at registration time? We don't really want to have to patch this structure every time someone adds a new security module that needs audit and/or network facilities, right?
