Hi,

I've tested that if you build a debian-installer netboot image with 
latest version of binutils, then you get a broken image. Downgrading 
binutils (without touching anything else) fixed it. Steps to 
reproduce in up-to-date sid with a version of debian-installer in 
which mklibs were not replaced with mklibs-copy:

1. apt-get source debian-installer
2. apt-get build-dep debian-installer
3. cd debian-installer-20110106+squeeze1/build/
4. make build_netboot
5. sudo chroot tmp/netboot/tree /bin/sh
   This will exit with a non-zero exit code as /bin/sh points to
   busybox which segfaults immediately.
6. Downgrade binutils to 2.21.0.20110327-3.
7. make reallyclean
8. make build_netboot
9. sudo chroot tmp/netboot/tree /bin/sh
   This will drop you into a busybox shell because everything is 
   working properly.

Best regards,
