Thank you for trying this idea out; despite the trolling attempts, this
effort is long welcome.

There are some issues with the patchset, which I intend to cover in
subsequent emails. I have published[1] some fix-up commits on top of
these patches in an attempt to ensure that, barring the issues with a
known fix, this works; however, some bugs are definitely still unsolved
by now, so I decided to discuss the more apparent points first.

There's an issue when hasher-privd tries to fulfill a chrootuid{1,2}
request: the (eventually) unprivileged task executor process
successfully invokes waitpid() or the likes on a child process,
select()s on I/O descriptors, but gets CHLD later — and it looks like
the inherited signal handler causes it to wait again.
I've not yet found a decent reproducer — the following command:
`hsh-shell $workdir'
reproduces the issue reliably for me, but hsh-mkchroot, hsh-rmchroot,
hsh-install are all OK. The root cause nevertheless is not yet
established. It looks like this has to be patched somewhere in
chrootuid(), but I might be wrong on this one.
