Bingo! (Thanks.)

Note to self: When replacing *important* libraries like libselinux.so,
don't just blast the unwanted RPM package away, figuring on then
installing the new one. Instead, use --oldpackage or --force to
replace the unwanted package with the desired one in atomic operation. 
Failure to do so will make both rpm and yum (and many other programs)
unusable.
