Some basic tests to verify sealing on memfds works as expected and
guarantees the advertised semantics.

Thanks for whatever the fix was, I didn't hit any problem running
this version repeatedly, on 64-bit and on 32-bit.

glibc does pid-caching so getpid() can be skipped once called. fork()
and clone() have to update it, though. Therefore, you shouldn't mix
fork() and clone() in the same process. I replaced my fork() call with
a simple clone() and the bug was gone.

Thanks
David
