Issue with selinux and swapfiles in FC5?

Hi. I found this line in my logs:

audit(1140033999.212:6): avc:  denied  { write } for  pid=2171
comm="swapon" name="swapfile" dev=sda2 ino=67052
scontext=system_u:system_r:fsadm_t:s0
tcontext=system_u:object_r:default_t:s0 tclass=file

I'm just experimenting with selinux, so I set it up in permissive mode
and the swap was activated.

Is there a way to get rid of it? (or can it be considered harmless?)

Thanks in advance.
Fabio
