One thing to keep in mind is that every utility and library you need
must exist inside the chroot. Unless Jeremy knows of an easy way to set
this up, it's going to involve some effort for what you want. It's
fairly easy to chroot mysql or apache. Less so when you need major parts
of your tools chain. Often you'll need to use ldd to find what you need
to move into the chroot (or hardlink as you've done). Then ldd on
*those* results. Repeat until done.

Jeremy, is there an easier way?!
