There is at least one known problems with strace on this platform related
to your case: the version of GNU awk is too old, it doesn't support
mpers.awk, so there is no reliable x86 personality support on x86_64, in
particular, all parsers that need to decode struct msghdr won't be able to
do it properly on x86_64 for x86 personality processes, and this is exactly
what you see in the strace output.
So the recipe is to use a newer operating system or at least a newer
version of GNU awk, or just trace 32-bit processes with a 32-bit strace.
