On entering syscall, seccomp kernel hooks are executed before ptrace
kernel hooks.  As result, when some syscall is blocked by seccomp filter
using SECCOMP_RET_ERRNO statement, on many architectures including x86 and
x86_64 the syscall number is clobbered and straces sees -1 in its place.

You can play with strace/tests/seccomp.c and see it yourself.
