Yeah, the Kconfig entry for NAMESPACES is... misleading. It seems it should depend on CONFIG_EXPERT, but if you have one of the _NS options set in the config it gets flipped on regardless. It's either that or the weird "default !EXPERT" causing it to be enabled even when the CONFIG_EXPERT option is not set.
Anyway, still seems to me that systemd/rtkit-daemon should be _checking_ to see if that feature is present instead of assuming it is and failing in weird ways when it isn't.
