Before CentOS 5 I did the same.  The last few machines I have installed 
CentOS 5 on I have started turning on SELinux with a targeted policy 
because it worked pretty much without modification.  I had to make 
modifications to create directories in non-standard places and to use 
non-standard ports but everything else just worked without modification.
