setns() is not defined in your glibc version. We could surely add a
syscall wrapper for that to src/shared/missing.h. We already do that for
name_to_handle_at(), fanotify, pivot_root(), gettid(). Hence I don't see
why we couldn't add that for setns() too. You'd have to prep the patch
though, as I don't have such an old glibc to test against around. You
find a lot of inspiration in the current missing.h.
