Ah-ha! Excellent. Did you add an implementation for change_syscall()
in seccomp_bpf.c? I don't have a powerpc method in there. I would have
expected both TRACE_syscall.syscall_redirected and .syscall_dropped to
fail without that.

If you did, maybe something isn't right with regs.SYSCALL_RET ? That's
where the return value being tested on a skipped syscall is stored.

Thanks for testing!
