Indeed yes, as I'd just discovered. Adding #include <errno.h>
to pivot_root.c fixes the problem

Andries, please apply this trivial fix to util-linux/mount/pivot_root.c

Your code probably doesn't #include <errno.h>.  Make sure that it does
that.  The old glibc used to allow non-standards compliant code to
compile and work.  Recent glibcs aren't as permissive.  Note that old
binaries run against the new glibc will fail (either silently or at
startup time, depending on whether the bug related to that has been
fixed or not)

Tks,
Jeff Bailey
