I would guess this is happening for one of two reasons.

One you have a service account in /etc/passwd or NIS which has a homedir
in /opt.  SELinux has mistakenly seen this as a login account, because
the account has a UID > 500 and a valid shell.  If you change the shell
to /sbin/nologin or /bin/false and run genhomedircon, the duplicate file
context will go away.

The second way this could happen is you or some application/rpm added a
file context via semanage  that matches a definition from the base.

You can use semanage fcontext -d FILECONTEXT to remove the file context
mappening.
