I run into similar problems every time I've tried to enable SELinux. I now run it in "permissive" mode on most of my machines and watch the occasional warnings appear in /var/log/messages. But I think the situation is improving since I'm seeing fewer warnings in F8 than with F7 or FC6. And you can install the "sealert" packages: setroubleshoot.noarch setroubleshoot-plugins.noarch setroubleshoot-server.noarch which provide much more detailed and helpful diagnostic messages.
