Have you downgraded any packages or ran any SELinux incantations? It is
still busted when I tested it after your comment that it was fixed in
rawhide.

The only package I downgraded was xorg-x11-xinit from -8 back to -7.
Also moved /etc/X11/xinit/xintrc.d/localuser.sh out of the way.
Otherwise, I think I'm running the latest rawhide packages,
targeted/enforcing, with allow_execmem=0.

The allow_execmem=0 is the item that allows you to boot into metacity.
I filed a bug since there were a few comments regarding the glibGL error and
apparently no bug report to inform the X maintainer/developer.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=199886
The problem is still present and related to execmem.
FWIW, I just updated to the latested rawhide and for the first time in several
weeks I can login with selinux enabled. I rebooted after the update and selinux
relabeled and I can once again login without playing any games with selinux
or metacity.
No magic incantations necessary. :-)

Tom
Thanks!
