  i suspect koen will hate me for this but i documented what it took
for me to build angstrom over at my wiki:

http://www.crashcourse.ca/wiki/index.php/Angstrom

and if you read carefully, you'll notice that even if that value is
correctly set to zero, you might still get an SELinux violation.  it's
just a suggestion.
