The issue is that it gives a "ENOSPC" error, which is usually
associated with disk space (and the text error message reflects that),
but in this case it's to do with the number of namespaces allowed by
the kernel.

If you Google for the error you can see that the error triggered
changes with kernel version, so obviously there has been some debate
about what exactly it should be reporting.
