Indeed it appears you are able to turn it off. Here's /etc/selinux/config, as in Scientific Linux. As it's a kernel thingy, I presume a reboot would be needed. # This file controls the state of SELinux on the system. # SELINUX= can take one of these three values: # enforcing - SELinux security policy is enforced. # permissive - SELinux prints warnings instead of enforcing. # disabled - SELinux is fully disabled. SELINUX=enforcing # SELINUXTYPE= type of policy in use. Possible values are: # targeted - Only targeted network daemons are protected. # strict - Full SELinux protection. SELINUXTYPE=targeted I got going, meanwhile, in HLFS, for the record. It appears that user lfs had his home dir (therefore config files) moved in my fooling around and letting nALFS loose. /home/lfs had no .bashrc or profile. That got me away from that stupid "suffix of executables" error. That built up to glibc pass1 with de_DE.iso8859-1 only crapping out big time. Given the choice, I'll build in hlfs as I trust the build system better.
