Not a solution per se, but a workaround. Instead of restarting Apache
from the service file, I touch a file in /run and keep a small script
checking it every minute (executed from crontab). That seems to work,
but it's a kludge and shouldn't be necessary. I've tried looking into
the proper security context to eliminate the AVC errors, but it's a
real rabbit-hole and I can't be bothered, though there are plenty of
people who seem to report similar problems.

I also reported to BZ the basic problem of Apache not resuming itself
without all this faffing around, but have had no response so far:
