Here's one.  So I've built and installed this new kernel, and then 
rebooted into it, and then I get this.

Jun 13 12:08:24 north kernel: audit(1150196904.915:6): avc:  denied  { 
entrypoint } for  pid=1873 comm="login" name="bash" dev=hda7 ino=49158 
scontext=root:sysadm_r:hotplug_t:s0-s0:c0.c255 
tcontext=system_u:object_r:file_t:s0 tclass=file

And that's probably as much help as I can be on this matter, since I 
have now re-installed FC5 from scratch.  Thanks for your attention.
