kerneloops needing signal is a bug in selinux-policy.

You can allow this for now.

# audit2allow -M mypol -l -i /var/log/audit/audit.log
# semodule -i mypol.pp

Fixed in selinux-policy-3.3.1-89.fc9.noarch

The dhcp_t (/sbin/dhclient) trying to read/write an unconfined_t
unix_stream_socket, is a leaked file descriptor.  So it is a bug in some
application that you are using to bring up your network.  What app are
you using for this?
