Confirmed.

Ran in to the same issue, haven't had a chance to go back and investigate why.

Do you have a link to the bug report so I can subscribe?

Subject: RHEL7 GDM broken with SELinux + noexec /var/tmp

FYI, as of right now, if you add noexec to /var/tmp *and* enable SELinux in enforcing mode, GDM will not start.

Wanted you all to know to prevent head+desk issues.

Bugs have been filed, news at 11.
