It's already difficult: nss modules, iconv modules, potentially pam =
modules, on Solaris you need some magic network-related =
devices, .... SUS2 is correct in stating that it's not portable at =
all. If you want to use chroot, expect pain.
As such, it'd probably be smart not to have arla use it by default; =
make it an option, let whoever's packaging it for a distribution do =
the legwork if they want to use chroot (that's their job anyway).
