Thanks for showing interest in strace GSoC projects.

I understand your confusion.  The output is not incorrect but at the same
time it's incomplete.  For example, 
- both NS_GET_USERNS and NS_GET_PARENT return descriptors,
  but does strace -y show them properly?
- NS_GET_NSTYPE returns a namespace type, but does strace print it
  in symbolic form like it does for setns syscall?
