[Fedora-xen] SElinux causes kernel bug on F7(?)

Hi,

after upgrading my SElinux on Fedora 7 (x86_64) to selinux-policy-2.6.4-28.fc7 
and selinux-policy-targeted-2.6.4-28.fc7, I can't start Xen guests anymore. 
Every time I do 'xm create xenguest' I get a message "invalid opcode: 0000 [2] 
SMP" on all consoles together with some long call traces in syslog [1].

Immediately before I updated SElinux, the guest creation failed due to losetup 
policy restrictions. After the update, I get "invalid opcode" messages. If I put 
SElinux into permissive mode, I can at least start the xen guest. I think it is 
the same problem as in bug 248834 [2].

So my question is:
* Is it really SElinux which causes the problem?
* Are there other Xen users out there which can reproduce this problem?
* Is this the right list to ask this question or should I ask on the SElinux
   list?
* How can I help to fix this problem?

Thank you very much
