policy-MLS in Fedora 9 is not supported in a GUI i believe. If you want
to use policy-MLS, use it in runlevel 3 only.

In Fedora 11 (rawhide), MLS might work with the GUI but it is still a
work in progress.

I am not sure why "service --status-all" would cause issue however. Any
related AVC denial that is generated might give clues.
