This hardly seems like a bug.  The entire *point* of SELinux is to prevent
daemon processes from doing unexpected things like connecting to ports
that they shouldn't.

And that's where you told SELinux it was okay.  But I would not expect
the out-of-the-box configuration to allow this, and it didn't.
