Or just use libseccomp and let it take care of all the different ABI
specific warts for you.  The library handles the undefined syscalls
you describe, but also multiplexed syscalls (e.g. socket related
syscalls on x86) and proper invalid arch/ABI filtering (you are
filtering x32 correctly on x86-64 right?).
