policycoreutils-1.10-2: fixfiles/setfiles hangs....

Downloaded policy-1.11.2-13 and policy-sources-1.11.2-13.
Went to single user mode via "telinit 1" and ran "fixfiles relabel":
Clearing out /tmp
/usr/sbin/setfiles: read 1422 specifications
/usr/sbin/setfiles: labeling files under /
inode_doinit_with_dentry: context_to_sid(system_u:object_r:at_spool_t) returned 22 for dev=hdb3 ino=511869
fixfiles is now "stuck". I managed to kill it and get a shell prompt. "ps agx" showed some multi-user processes still executing (e.g., bonobo_activation..., sendmail), so I manually killed them and restarted "fixfiles relabel".
After a few minutes of disk activity, fixfiles again is stuck, but this time, CTL-C/CTL-Z does not produce shell prompt.
I hit the reset button and brought the machine up single user from GRUB (after repairing file system). "fixfiles relabel" now completes.
Is the lesson here: "Only run fixfiles from GRUB/single-user, not from telinit 1?" Is some filesystem lock interfering?
