So, the kernel is 64bit but userland is 32bit?  Why is that, and how would you
know that unless you just knew it? :)

My schroot.conf on that machine had no personality set, but I've gone ahead
and added linux32 to all three distroseries.  I don't need to do any kind of
updates for those chroots, do I?
