Looking into it a bit, I found that the openvpn.fc sets up the file
contexts so that the openvpn files can be confined to an openvpn
specific domain.  Unfortunately, there isn't an openvpn domain specified
at this point.  The openvpn.fc file is essentially ignored (with a
targeted policy anyway) since there is not an associated
domains/program/openvpn.te file to define the domain.

As far as the RPM itself goes, I don't think that there is anything
specific that you would need to do for OpenVPN.  If/when the selinux
policies are updated to include a definition for an OpenVPN domain, the
files should get labeled properly (either via filesystem relabeling or
openvpn rpm upgrade/install).
