SELinux and awstats

After struggling for a while today with an install of awstats on an 
newly set up FC3 system, I finally looked into /var/log/messages. It was 
full of lines like those below. I've disabled SELinux to get awstats 
working. How do I get it to acccept it?

FWIW, when run directly from a command line, the perl scripts work just 
fine. They don't work when run from /etc/cron.hourly through run-parts.
