[gentoo-containers] Issue with docker init script

[Andrey Utkin]

Hi Gentoo Containers project team,

I experience inability to run docker daemon with provided init script.
The blocking nature of the issue makes me wonder if that's just me, as I
don't see it reported on bugzilla.

The issue is: docker daemon won't start from init script. Status would
show "crashed" immediately. See log in the bottom.

Workarounds:

* comment out "ulimit -n 1048576" from start_pre() in init script
* do not use init script, i.e. start dockerd directly or with
  start-stop-daemon --start --exec /usr/bin/dockerd --pidfile /run/docker.pid --verbose --background --stderr /var/log/docker-err.log --stdout /var/log/docker-out.log -- -p /run/docker.pid

Could anybody please try to reproduce that, or suggest what this could be?
Thanks in advance.
