The only logged error from vixie-cron:
Aug 20 19:01:01 tux cron[9304]: (arguseyes) ENTRYPOINT FAILED
(crontabs/arguseyes)
The avc.log:
Aug 20 19:00:32 tux type=1400 audit(1219284032.151:2574): avc: denied { read
} for pid=28854

scontext=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_crontab_t

tclass=file
The actual context of the user crontab (/var/spool/cron/crontab/arguseyes)
unconfined_u:object_r:unconfined_cron_spool_t
I user ID from id -Z:
unconfined_u:unconfined_r:unconfined_t
Hope this helps.
