set to 1.

+  o Minor bugfixes (linux seccomp sandbox):
+    - Correct how we use libseccomp. Particularly, stop assuming that
+      rules are applied in a particular order or that more rules are
+      processed after the first match. Neither is the case! In libseccomp
+      <2.4.0 this lead to some rules having no effect. Libseccomp 2.4.0
+      changed how rules are generated leading to a different ordering
+      which in turn lead to a fatal crash during startup. Fixes bug
+      29819; bugfix on 0.2.5.1-alpha. Patch by Peter Gerber.
