Over time a few people have found there's some cases where permissive
mode doesn't permit some things to happen (and log them), it actually
did stop them from working.  It looks like you've found another.

That's one reason why I, and others, will tell people that if they don't
intend to use SELinux, at all, to "really disable it, don't just put it
into permissive mode."  Think of permissive as a test mode.  And if
you're not testing, you either have it on or off.
