GDM and KDM won't start after upgrading to xorg-x11-6.8.2-37.FC4.49.2

I upgraded to the latest xorg-x11 rpms after the recent post about problems
with xorg-x11-Mesa-libGLU.
After rebooting neither gdm nor kdm will start in runlevel 5. It appears to
be a SELINUX permissions problem.
I viewed /var/log/gdm/:0.log and got the following:

"fixfiles relabel" did not remove the problem. Strangely, downgrading to the
previous version, xorg-x11-6.8.2-37.FC4.48.1,
also did not fix this problem. So far the only cure I have found is to
downgrade to xorg-x11-6.8.2-37.FC4.45.

How do I fix?

Thanks,

Kam
