It's not SELinux. It's the other thing I use just to annoy you: nginx.
If you're using Nginx and PHP-FPM you need to add something to your config files to enable slash arguments.
Your location block that forwards PHP requests to PHP-FPM should look something like this:
location ~ [^/]\.php(/|$) { fastcgi_split_path_info ^(.+\.php)(/.+)$; fastcgi_index index.php; fastcgi_pass unix:/var/run/php-fpm/php-fpm.sock; include fastcgi_params; fastcgi_param PATH_INFO $fastcgi_path_info; fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME $document_root$fastcgi_script_name; }
