Is it?  OK, any idea what caused that and how to fix it?

I can't find much on Google about it except this page:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/SELinux/EnforcePolicy
says "The init process then runs /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit, which is labeled 
initrc_exec_t. The kernel has a rule that says when init_t execs 
initrc_exec_t it transitions to initrc_t. So this continues until the 
httpd executable gets started as httpd_t."  Even though in my case it's 
not happening.
