The fact the script was bin_t does not mean that it was running in that
domain.
Basically their is no domain transition happening. Apache runs in
httpd_t, which is allowed to run bin_t. But it will stay in the context
of httpd_t. So when the bin_t labeled application runs
httpd_sys_script_exec_t, from SELinux point of view it is httpd_t
executing httpd_sys_script_exec_t. In this case their will be a
transition to httpd_sys_script_t.
