Would you care commenting on how this helps, and what the side effects could be ?

FWIW, I'm experiencing a similar issue inside a docker container running sid, adapted from phusion/baseimage-docker, and even though the workaround helps, I'm concerned of the impact.

Also, maybe #711289 is relevant to this issue, but it's a bit cryptic to me for the moment.

Thanks in advance.

Best regards,
