Please report this bug to them, so they can fix their library. I will make the appropriate action to label it by default. If you do the chcon suggested by setroubleshoot it should work Fixed in selinux-policy-2.6.4-18
Yes, I did the chcon as recommended but it also recommended that I file a bug report to get it fixed by default as well.
Closing as fixes are in the current release
