Yeah, funnily I just (yesterday) managed to recreate something very
similar in a chroot where I completely messed up a libc update... I
didn't debug it too much, but it was quite peculiar in that every
executable suddenly stopped claiming to be an executable. They even
looked wierd from another 32bit chroot mounting the dead chroot...
I didn't study it too much, but definitely things go a bit peculiar if
you mess up libc... Curious
