cc'd fedora-selinux-list as well above, since you mentioned you were
using FC4.

This usually indicates a text relocation, which is undesirable if it can
be avoided.  The stock FC4 php doesn't appear to have any text
relocations in its libphp (readelf -d libphp5.so.1 |  grep TEXTREL).
Possibly it has a patch to avoid the problem.

Ideally, it would be best if you could similarly patch or fix the build
for PHP 5.1.2.  If you truly need to allow it, then you can label
the .so file with the texrel_shlib_t type (since you are using FC4, I
used the old type name).
