To be fair, I'm curious to know if there are there any distros out there 
that have done any better than Fedora Core in making an SELinux-capable distro
available out of the box?

I think the direction the Fedora project is taking with SELinux is 
admirable. If people don't want to use it all they really have to know 
about is the {get,set}enforce commands and /etc/sysconfig/selinux. If they 
do want to use it I'd recommend O'Reilly's book on SELinux.
