Well, the only way to make it behave itself is to not run it at all,
because as soon as Xenomai run its threads, it "steals" time to
Linux. So, the workaround is to get it to run not too long, but it
is not guaranteed to be sufficient to avoid detection, and the other
workaround is to disable Linux detection mechanisms.
