Phillipe, Dan, et all.

I have updated selinux policy and posted the following to bug report:

/*

I have updated selinux policy to latest available and have applied the suggested fix.  I will boot newer kernel and report back if the problem persists, ie. kppp will trigger setroubleshoot, otherwise report back problem has been fixed.  

*/

Antonio
