Thanks! That's probably a good suggestion. However I did try doing a
restorecon -R -v on the entire puppet directory. No luck in resolving that
error. And it's really bugging me that SELinux has to stay off in order for
puppet to do it's thing.

However I was at least smart enough to keep my entire puppet directory, as
well as my puppetdb directory in SVN. So in case of a need to rebuild, I
can ease the process a bit. I'm heavily leaning to a rebuild at this point
to resolve this. Sucks, but what can ya do!

And if I do actually take that step I hope that the rebuild resolves it.
And that I haven't checked anything into SVN that would muff up SELinux on
the rebuilt host.
