Following the advice in that link I did
touch /.autorelabel;reboot

This reverted the system so that ssh in failed as it had in the first place
so I had to fix the context for /opt/ using restorecon again....

This put me back in the position where I can ssh in but only giving the 
password - passwordless login is still not possible.

I tried restorecon -v /opt/Local/home/mike/.ssh/authorized_keys2 but
this made no difference - and I still cannot login without the password.

The sealert message suggests doing restorecon -v './authorized_keys2' 
and I had tried but this does not fix the problem.

Hence there seems to be a bug in the SELinux policy on this issue?
