That is incorrect. With Fedora Core 6 the recommendation is definitely
to have SELinux enabled when running Xen. The main thing you have to
be careful of is where you keep your filesystem images. The SELinux
policy expects them in /var/lib/xen/images. Same is true of ISO images
if you're using them to install fully virt guests.

If you have disk images in the expected location, then Xen should 'just work'
with SELinux enabled.

The howto you found is wrong :-(
I've added a note about neccessary SELinux disk image directory to the
official Fedora Xen guide.
