That is what I thought.

Ooops, I accidentally copied the selinux file that I got from
/etc/sysconfig/selinux to /etc/selinux after I saw that it's a symlink. I
overlooked that the name is config, not selinux. Thanks!

getenforce says Permissive, which makes sense now, since config still
shows Permissive.

As I said: no, but I can only rule it out for sure if I disable it. There
is no other error output and SELinux preventing the server from su'ing to
a non-root user would indeed make it fail.
Thanks so far, I'm now going to disable it.
