I was partially wrong ...
```
type=AVC msg=audit(1404711494.997:6093): avc: denied { write } for
pid=19794 comm="beam.smp" name="default.ini" dev="dm-0" ino=672839
scontext=system_u:system_r:couchdb_t:s0
tcontext=system_u:object_r:couchdb_conf_t:s0 tclass=file
```
couchdb does try to write to the first ini during startup.

```
When you try to save a configuration via REST it does write to the last
ini, so @rnewson's patch actually does work.
Any idea where/why it opens the first ini file for writing during startup?
