I suspect that:

a. The SELinux contexts for /usr/share/drupal may not allow the contents
to be webserved.  To check:  "ls -Z /usr/share/drupal" (there should be
some mention of HTTP in the contexts, at least).

b. The Apache configuration may not be set to follow symlinks.  There
whould need to be an "Options FollowSymLinks" somewhere (either an
overall default, or specific to drupals).
