 For the record, I can reproduce this on my side. I just do "fakeroot
/bin/bash", then do the commands from the shell. Even an ls -l of the copied
files within the fakeroot shell already shows the "arnout" instead of "root"
user. My host fakeroot (Debian 1.21-3.1).

 I have also tried removing the ac_cv_header_sys_capability_h=y, that doesn't
make a difference.

 I have not yet tried applying the Debian patches to the Buildroot-built fakeroot.

 Regards,
 Arnout
