Yeah, I thought so too.  I was able to reproduce it just now, though,
with selinux enforcement on (sudo /usr/sbin/setenforce 1).  Currently
running "yum update" to see if it still happens with the latest
selinux-policy-targeted ... if so there will be a bug report opened
soon, and not against postgres ;-)

The quick answer for Jarkko might be to turn off selinux enforcement.
Especially if he's running an old selinux policy --- there were multiple
PG-related bugs in earlier iterations.
