A better fix is to label the acroread files correctly, which only
"opens" the protection for acroread and not every process on the system:

I believe you need:
# chcon -t textrel_shlib_t \
	/usr/lib/acroread/Reader/intellinux/lib/*.so \
	/usr/lib/acroread/Reader/intellinux/SPPlugins/*.apl \
	/usr/lib/acroread/Reader/intellinux/plug_ins/*.api
