[...] but how difficult could it be to tell the first module that loads (eg AppArmor) that it's okay to load dazuko too?

My reading of this statement in their FAQ is that it's just spin. It's very common for two security solutions to collide, and for very good design reasons. To an AV scanner, another AV scanner look an awful lot like a rootkit. Making them work together, in the open souce world, is called "collaboration," and it makes the software better for everyone.

And that seems to be exactly the step that the "Dazuko" jokers want to skip. The article was clearly a troll, and about some IMHO pretty questionable software.
