AVCs with ntpd

OK, so I'm trying SElinux after having it disabled for some time. 
That's what I did:

1. Installed selinux-policy-targeted-1.17.16-2
2. Recompiled the kernel with SElinux support
3. Booted into single user mode
4. Ran "fixfiles relabel"
5. Rebooted with "selinux=1"

Now, I'm seeing a lot of these:

audit(1095681913.039:0(: avc: denied  { search } for  pid=2515 
exe=/usr/sbin/ntpd dev=tmpfs ino=357 scontext=user_u:system_r:ntpd_t 
tcontext=user_u:object_r"tmpfs_t tclass=dir

The problem here is that I'm using UDEV and that the initial ramdisk 
mounts a tmpfs on top of "/dev", thus, covering the labeled "/dev" that 
resides on disk.

How should I fix this?
