Hm, and now i'm getting something very similar when running a simple DB
initialization script (create databases, create users, create tables,
assign privileges) that before (with non-updated FC4t2) did not give any
SELinux warnings.

These are errors you would only see in permissive mode. Basically in enforcing mode the attempt to read the directory is dontaudited So the app never tries to read the files.
So we don't fix these problems.  Why are you running in permissive mode?
