So I don't understand your previous devfs question.

I assume that it works outside the chroot so you could strace and ldd
it to check that you have the right files and libraries inside the
chroot.

Offhand, you might need, file-wise, to add one or more of
"/etc/{gai,host,nsswitch}.conf" to your previous list of three for
getaddrinfo to function on Linux; but it's just a guess.
