It seems that libseccomp is relying on a regression I accidentally introduced a while back (compare with stretch where this would fail as well). Undoing the change from 11.3.5 implies re-introducing a "silent failure to FTBFS when files are missing"-bug (see #902355) so I think we should consider it a genuine bug in libseccomp. Thanks, ~Niels
