commit 168aba297866295d96779239e9662821ce9e66ae

    linux-container: Do not rely on 'isatty?'.
    
    This avoids problems where 'isatty?' return #t but 'ttyname' fails with
    ENOTTY or such.
    
    * gnu/build/linux-container.scm (mount-file-systems): Remove call of
    'isatty?'.  Directly call 'ttyname' and catch 'system-error'.
