the ruby installation was downloaded as a .tar file and installed using an install script to the path /opt/ruby-enterprise-1.8.7-2010.02/
Thus everything in my $RUBY_HOME/bin is labelled system_u:object_r:bin_t:s0
This includes $RUBY_HOME/bin/passenger. That explains why httpd is not running in the passenger domain.
Should I attempt to relabel these files myself?
This still doesn't explain the /proc access.
I've attempted to do look up the name of the process ID in the AVC denial messages but that process doesn't seem to show up using a `ps -ef` or looking for in in htop. It must be exiting quickly.

like its not working on your system (note looks) since it seems to still
run in the httpd_t domain.
Why would it? can you reproduce this issue. Does it only happen if you

restart httpd manually? I guess it does..
See if it works when ignoring this.

(service httpd restart/stop/start etc) not sure though.
can you ls -alZ /path/to/passenger executable file?
It should be labelled type: passenger_exec_t
httpd should domain transition to the passenger_t domain when it runs
the passenger executable file (files with type passenger_exec_t)
seem that doesnt happen but even if it did, passenger still wouldnt be
able to read unconfined_t state files in /proc ( not sure why it would
need to either)
