From: Florian Weimer <fweimer@redhat.com>

Another executable has already been mapped, so the dynamic linker
cannot perform relocations correctly for the second executable.

(cherry picked from commit 2c75b545de6fe3c44138799c68217a94bc669a88)
(test omitted due to indirect dependency on test-in-container)
