Might you have installed VMware?
Correct.
Mangling the context of /etc/services
to rpm_script_tmp_t is a long-standing bug in the VMware package
scripts.
# ls -lZ /etc/serv*
-rw-r--r-- root root system_u:object_r:etc_t /etc/services
# rpm -Uvh --replacepkgs VMware-server-1.0.4-56528.i386.rpm

Searching the vmware forums found the identical cause leading to slghtly
different selinux symptoms - logging not working, and a comment form
myself in there:

referencing:
http://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-list/2007-April/msg00780.html ,794
and another on using vmware-server with F8:
http://communities.vmware.com/message/856343#856343
which didn't stop me, but helped others.
Actually, I submitted a vmware "defect report" to this effect.
A secondary question: is there a way in which troubleshoot browser could
be improved to point the finger at the correct cause / solution ?
Or is the effort best spent in getting vmware to script the install more
carefully ?
