Public bug reported:

When creating a new container, and creating a new user within the
container, if the new user has the same id and gid as a global user, the
processes created within the container are owned by that global user.

This causes unexpected ownership of container processes by users of the
global zone, which shouldn't happen. Processes spawned from a container
zone should be isolated from the global zone users.
