Sun Java plugin won't work with SELinux enforcing in FC6 test 1

In FC5 with SELinux enforcing I am able to get the Sun Java plugin to
work with a "setsebool -P allow_execstack=1" and a "setsebool -P
allow_execmod=1". With FC6 I have to disable SELinux altogether (do a
"setenforce 0" or add "selinux=0" on the kernel line
in /boot/grub/grub.conf and reboot) in order for the Sun Java plugin to
work in Firefox. Also I notice that in Gnome "System" > "Administration"
> "Security Level and Firewall" on the "SELinux" tab under "Modify
SELinux Policy" > "Compatibility" the option "Allow the use of shared
libraries with Text Relocation" is no longer available (which I believe
would also solve the Java plugin issue and other issues). Any ideas?
