Hi Cristoph, on my system (where fsgqa is id 501) the one liner the
test is running is:

# ./src/nsexec -s -U -M "0 501 1000" -G "0 501 1000" ./src/lstat64
Usage: lstat64 [-t] filename ...

Since you are getting to the point where it is trying to print out the
ids, that means you already ran nsexec once for the touch command to
create the file, which is why I think it is something to do with
exec()ing lstat64. You could try replacing the 501 in the -G with the
group id of fsgqa since it is possibly not 501 also, but I don't see
how that is the problem.
