  Unfortunately, I'm unable to determine what the key element is.
  It fails on my laptop, running identical user-mode-linux code and file
system that works on two devel machine I have.  My laptop is is
etch+2.6.17.4, (but I went back a 2.6.12.3 kernel I had, and it still
failed).  It works on a debian sarge+2.4.30 kernel, and a debian
sarge+2.6.18.16 system.

  I copied my / (not /usr) to the 2.6.18.16, setup a chroot, etc. and 
ran the binaries compiled on my laptop against the file system there. No
fault.

  My laptop while at IETF has a public IP, so if you want I could make
you an account...
