Doubt it.  It looks like the only things that need to be relabled are
the symlinks /sbin, /bin, /lib, /lib64, best if we did this with
setfiles.  /etc/ld.so.cache seems to need a label also.

Here is a patch that I think we should consider, which would eliminate
the relabel, if it works...

Sadly I updated my machine with a previous version of this script and
the script broke.  If anyone has a good test environment, that could
try it out, would be great.


Theoretically if this patch works, you would not need to disable
SELinux at all.
