I am not sure this is the same bug but I get about 20 such messages when boinc starts up.

Summary:

SELinux is preventing
/a4400/boinc/projects/climateprediction.net/hadam3p_um_6.14_i686-pc-linux-gnu
"ioctl" access on
/a4400/boinc/projects/climateprediction.net/hadam3p_n46j_1959_2_006153909/dataout/phist.day.

Detailed Description:

SELinux denied access requested by hadam3p_um_6.14. It is not expected that this
access is required by hadam3p_um_6.14 and this access may signal an intrusion
attempt. It is also possible that the specific version or configuration of the
application is causing it to require additional access.

Allowing Access:

You can generate a local policy module to allow this access - see FAQ
(http://docs.fedoraproject.org/selinux-faq-fc5/#id2961385) Please file a bug
report.

The problem is '/a4400/boinc' is not standard location. 

Execute:

# semanage fcontext -a -t var_t '/a4400(/.*)?'
# semanage fcontext -a -e /var/lib/boinc /a4400/boinc
# restorecon -R -v /a4400

to make this work. It will label '/a4400' as var_t and everything under /a4400/boinc as if it was under /var/lib/boinc.
