If auditd is being run inside a container, then it has problems because
the audit subsystem inside the kernel isn't container aware/namespaced.
I have recently made changes to auditd in svn for the next release which
allows auditd to run as a log _aggregator_ inside a container. This
means it has no knowledge of events coming from within the container
but can act as an aggregator for systems doing remote logging.
To add some commentary to this: we are not going to namespace the
audit subsystem like other subsystems, but making audit *aware* of
namespaces is on the todo list.
