Weird.

It just sunk in that you are running FC4 and not FC3. That's pretty
bleeding edge stuff ;-) ... maybe what you need is a downgrade not an
upgrade. But if you still see the problem once you're on the latest
kernel, please do file a bugzilla entry about it. It seems possible
that the FC4 version of chcon wants another argument beyond the ones
that FC3 knows about. Either that or it's just a plain bug in chcon.
