There is the kernel SELinux stuff and there are the changes added
to support multi-level security via SELinux which are always compiled
into CUPS and are extensive enough that we can't provide support for
the Red Hat versions of CUPS.

If you can reproduce this with a debug build (./configure
--enable-debug) of the stock CUPS from cups.org, then we can try to
help you, but otherwise you need to work with Red Hat or the CentOS
folks to figure out what is going wrong.
