I was able to work around a similar issue using Robert's article at
http://people.planetpostgresql.org/xzilla/index.php?/archives/310-typically-I-recommend-you-disable-SELinux....html
where he suggests that "setsebool -P httpd_can_network_connect_db=1" is
the magic incantation for RHEL5. That fixed my problem using PHP there.
