        <pre>Regarding the kernel patch, it requires the following sequence of system calls,
so that a mapping for root is available before the network namespace is
created:

unshare(CLONE_NEWUSER);
/* Setup any mappings */
unshare(CLONE_NEWNET);

I expect lxc, since it predates the patch just unshares the network namespace
at the same time as the user namespace, which will not have the desired effect
in this case.

I don't know how lxc works; are unprivileged containers started direct from the
command line or via a daemon? If the former, could someone try running it with
"unshare -r"?</pre>
