My suggestion was to eliminate the in-function #ifdef without changing
semantics, by adding something like this outside the function:

  #ifndef HAVE_NETNS
  # undef CLONE_NEWNET
  # define CLONE_NEWNET 0
  #endif

  ...
  int flags = CLONE_NEWPID|CLONE_NEWNS|CLONE_NEWUTS|CLONE_NEWUSER|
    CLONE_NEWNET|CLONE_NEWIPC|SIGCHLD;

That will work just like the original code.

The way I read it, "check this rc" sounds like it
must be a TODO or FIXME item, because that particular "rc"
value is the one that's being clobbered.

Thanks.
