Okay, so combining Andy's ideas on aliasing and "more seccomp flags",
we could declare that clock_gettime64() is not filterable on 32-bit at
all without the magic SECCOMP_IGNORE_ALIASES flag or something. Then we
would alias clock_gettime64 to clock_gettime _before_ the first evaluation
(unless SECCOMP_IGNORE_ALIASES is set)?

(When was clock_gettime64() introduced? Is it too long ago to do this
"you can't filter it without a special flag" change?)
