Negative. At the very minimum, I have not intentionally 
customized the policy sources, although I wonder whether the 
Redhat Package Manager has in effect done that for me.

# grep etc /etc/passwd
news:x:9:13:news:/etc/news:
ntp:x:38:38::/etc/ntp:/sbin/nologin
privoxy:x:73:73::/etc/privoxy:/sbin/nologin

None of these accounts have an inherent need for a homedir, 
unless I am mistaken. 

As you can see, no real users with directories in homedirs in /etc/,
but this system does get directory service from a legacy NIS server
that lives in Solaris land and cares nothing for such conventions
as real accounts starting in 500. 

I've just wiped the news account (no need for it), changed homedirs 
for the remaining three, and am running fixfiles restore. 

# /sbin/fixfiles restore
/usr/sbin/setfiles:  conflicting specifications for /etc/services and /var/spool/postfix/etc/services, using system_u:object_r:etc_t.
(dum dee dum).

Update to follow come next reboot.
