 Replying to [comment:3 yawning]:

 ship with Debian stable, which is probably the oldest set of packages that
 are "reasonable" to assume installed.

 compile time, so if we build against 2.1.1, we will be stuck with the
 features supported by it.  This degrades the effectiveness of the seccomp
 filters I use somewhat because conditional rules do not work correctly
 prior to 2.2.1.~~~ (Edit: This is probably fine, upon close examination,
 needs testing.)

 Good!

 ancient libs works even if more modern versions are installed, even if it
 isn't as good as it can be.)

 That's not an issue as we need Go 1.7 anyway for other stuff.
