Just edit the local.te file you generated and remove the following lines
class unix_stream_socket connectto;
allow httpd_t initrc_t:unix_stream_socket connectto;
Then regenerate the policy module again.
Not sure if that will work though, I haven't actually tried it.
I did install the rpm from the testing repo on a test machine over the weekend
and I got it working. How do we go about getting it into CentOS extras.
