3f80060500 Fix tests
So all these years I was totally deluded about the meaning of "set
-e". You might think that it causes statements like "false && true" or
"! true" to fail, but it doesn't...

524f89f139 Use unshare() instead of clone()
It turns out that using clone() to start a child process is unsafe in
a multithreaded program. It can cause the initialisation of a build
child process to hang in setgroups(), as seen several times in the
build farm:

The reason is that Glibc thinks that the other threads of the parent
exist in the child, so in setxid_mark_thread() it tries to get a futex
that has been acquired by another thread just before the clone(). With
fork(), Glibc runs pthread_atfork() handlers that take care of this
(in particular, __reclaim_stacks()). But clone() doesn't do that.

Fortunately, we can use fork()+unshare() instead of clone() to set up
private namespaces.

954188af27 Filter Nix-specific ANSI escape sequences from stderr
The Nixpkgs stdenv prints some custom escape sequences to denote
nesting and stuff like that. Most terminals (e.g. xterm, konsole)
ignore them, but some do not (e.g. xfce4-terminal). So for the benefit
of the latter, filter them out.

So now

  nix-instantiate --eval -E '{x}: x' --argstr x -xyzzy

correctly prints "-xyzzy", rather than giving an error.
