i disagree that SE-PostgreSQL is thought of as a replacement of PostgreSQL. 
furthermore, that concern could be addressed with adding sufficient warning to
SE-PostgreSQL's %description.

i think the reasonable conclusion is that SE-PostgreSQL is broken somewhere and
to switch back to PostgreSQL.

Fedora is on the leading edge of SELinux development, and thus is a perfect
place to test this extension of PostgreSQL.
