Strange /sbin and /usr/sbin permissions

I have a relatively fresh FC5 installation, but for some reason I
cannot write to /usr/sbin or /sbin as root. The only after installation
modification to the system is an installation of zimbra in /opt/zimbra
A shell session might explain it better than my prose can:
[root@localhost sbin]# cd /
[root@localhost /]# ls -alhd /usr/sbin
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 12K Nov 29 04:04 /usr/sbin
[root@localhost /]# id
uid=0(root) gid=0(root)
groups=0(root),1(bin),2(daemon),3(sys),4(adm),6(disk),10(wheel)
[root@localhost /]# touch /usr/sbin/foobarbaz
touch: cannot touch `/usr/sbin/foobarbaz': Permission denied
[root@localhost /]# chmod 755 /usr/sbin
chmod: changing permissions of `/usr/sbin': Operation not permitted
[root@localhost /]# mv /usr/sbin /usr/sbin.blah
mv: cannot move `/usr/sbin' to `/usr/sbin.blah': Operation not
permitted
[root@localhost /]# getfacl /usr/sbin
getfacl: Removing leading '/' from absolute path names
# file: usr/sbin
# owner: root
# group: root
user::rwx
group::r-x
other::r-x
I am ssh'ed into the server. The same thing happens for /sbin but it
does not happen for /usr/local/sbin
Does FC have some magically security system that I don't know about?
I'm coming from a Debian background.
