Well this commit fixes one of the issues discussed here (the utmpx test
failure), but not the ‘pivot-root’ test failure itself.

However, it seems that the ‘pivot-root’ test is now skipped in practice
on most systems so…

Turns out I found how to make it work again in commit
1deca767be1b84b96633e317f3fcdd5165f95df3.  Let me know if anything’s
amiss.

Finally closing!  :-)
