selinux and dbus problems

On each of my rawhide systems, every time I reboot without doing an
autorelabel, avahi and hal don't start due to selinux errors. d-bus is
started but it appears no one can talk to it. If I do do an autorelabel,
they start fine but only for that one boot. This has been going on for a
least a week. 

audit errors include these:

audit(1138719201.274:93): avc:  denied  { connectto } for  pid=3531 comm="avahi-daemon" name="system_bus_socket" scontext=user_u:system_r:avahi_t:s0 tcontext=system_u:system_r:initrc_t:s0 tclass=unix_stream_socket

Bugzilla doesn't seem to have any bugs about this but it does happen on
two systems for me. Anyone else seeing this?
