That's a good summary. As of Debian Etch (April of this year) the base
distribution now include enough SELinux compatible userland packages for
the fundamental utilities (ssh, svsvinit, pam, cron, some others) that you
don't have to run around hacking a set of patches anymore just to get the
base system working.
There is also a Hardened Gentoo with SELinux. The most notable
distribution where SELinux support is seriously dead is SuSE.
RHEL/Fedora are the only distributions where SELinux is taken seriously
enough that most packages/daemons are patched and have policies setup in a
useful state out of the box. But with some work you can customize a
reasonable setup on some other distributions.
