Do you tell it how to use the newly installed system's libc.so? Hm... 
inside the chroot... looks like "yes".

Normally this sounds ok, but... you're hurting cross-installability
that way. I've always wanted to run sysinst on a fileserver to
create the OS filesystem for a client machine. I didn't really try
this yet - I don't know how many other places there are that won't
work.
