no idea what mls is, but according to the selinux man page, 
/etc/selinux/$SELINUXTYPE must exist, so if its targeted, its looking in 
/etc/selinux/targeted.  there is no mls subdirectory in my /etc/selinux/

ok, google says mls is 'multi-level security'.  and I see there is an 
rpm in the base/updates repository, selinux-policy-mls, which probably 
populates the mls subdirectory.
