Looking at this again "my" error appears to be caused by the fact that my
/etc/timezone and /etc/localtime are read-only at the filesystem level as
I inherit them from outside my container:

    --volume=/etc/adjtime:/etc/adjtime:ro
    --volume=/etc/timezone:/etc/timezone:ro
    --volume=/etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro

When I turn that off, I can build fine. I find this strange, as I don't
actually build as root within this container so it couldn't write to it
even if it wanted.

Any ideas?
