Lol, yes. :-)

Hmm, very strange. What guest container are you using?
I tried with a Debian jessi and had user namespace enabled.
Sorry for the late reply. I used simple one. Only gentoo's stage 3
unpacked into a directory, no special settings used for it. Removing
/etc/securetty works for me. I'll give it another try, but probably
after the freeze. If anyone else wants to review this, don't get
stopped by the problems I'm having!
Thanks,
