I've learned a little more about selinux, and so ran audit2allow on the
denials above to generate the following two policies:

allow httpd_sys_script_t var_spool_t:dir search;
allow httpd_t self:process setrlimit;

I know I can use dontaudit to turn off auditing for these policies
(instead of allowing), but I don't know if that's a good idea, or even
the right approach.

Thanks,

Ranbir
