That is really interesting. Our company is using Linux-Vserver quite a 
lot, on Gentoo too, and have on our todo-list to provide an update of 
util-vserver and the kernel compilation routine who would fix some of 
the old stuff that gives warnings and problems. Last summer, we make a 
util-vserver compilation routine (as a test case ) which compiled 
without using beecrypt, for instance.

It is our intention to make this in a "proper" way also, and release it 
for others.

I see that you plan to move away from Linux-Vserver. Sorry to hear that, 
but if you are interested, we would be very much glad to help or look 
into the issues you are facing now, if that is an option for you. We are 
also in the process of updating to gcc 10, and any issues here will need 
to be looked into anyways.

Ditto that.
