gnome settings manager failure.... (X0?)

Running strict/enforcing off of Rawhide, I now get
a error window popping up on graphical login saying
that the Gnome settings manager can't start.

Here is the only avc that looks even close....

Aug  1 13:51:02 fedora kernel: audit(1091393462.647:0): avc:
denied  { write } for  pid=3366
exe=/usr/X11R6/bin/xscreensaver name=X0 dev=hda2 ino=4657817
scontext=user_u:user_r:user_screensaver_t
tcontext=system_u:object_r:xdm_tmp_t tclass=sock_file

When I try this in permissive mode, I get:

Aug  1 14:28:10 fedora kernel: audit(1091395690.098:0): avc: 
denied  { search } for  pid=4015 
exe=/usr/X11R6/bin/xscreensaver name=run dev=hda2 ino=4456484 
scontext=user_u:user_r:user_screensaver_t 
tcontext=system_u:object_r:var_run_t tclass=dir
Aug  1 14:28:10 fedora kernel: audit(1091395690.114:0): avc: 
denied  { write } for  pid=4015 
exe=/usr/X11R6/bin/xscreensaver name=X0 dev=hda2 ino=4657817 
scontext=user_u:user_r:user_screensaver_t 
tcontext=system_u:object_r:xdm_tmp_t tclass=sock_file

Not sure if this is connected. Is there a know problem,
or should I do the 'enableaudit' thing?
