Add 'tmp_domain(depmod)' to
/etc/security/selinux/src/policy/domains/program/modutils.te and do a
'make load' in /etc/security/selinux/src/policy. yum install
policy-sources if you don't already have it.

Very odd; these certainly shouldn't be unlabeled_t. What does a
getfilecon /etc/hotplug (or any of these files that are showing up with
unlabeled_t) show?
