As I mentioned above, disabling the tests is not a solution here, since
one of the tests failing is *actually* indicative of a regression in
PRoot, and we should not ignore it. Specifically, it seems the
interaction between pthreads and current working directory sandboxing
isn't working IIRC. I haven't heard back from upstream, I might have a
look at some point but I have no familiarity whatsoever with its
codebase (and I guess it's using some nasty tricks that will take some
time to understand).
Best,
