Thank you for this hint.
I tracked the issue to a manifestation of the following bug:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=443852
The fix was to do as one of the comments in the bug report suggested.
First, I downloaded both the F7 and F9 selinux-policy* packages.
Then, I did as follows:
1) mv /etc/selinux /etc/selinux.old
2) rpm --oldpackage -Uvh selinux-policy*fc7*
3) boot into the F9 rescue mode
4) chroot /mnt/sysimage
5) rpm -Uvh selinux-policy*fc9*
(this last step took a long time, but the upgrade fixed the user_u
issues while operating in a sane SELinux environment)
6) Reboot
Thanks a lot for the pointer!
