Well, this would certainly help with building the ports safely.  But I
think we -- at least I was -- were thinking that you would actually
leave them in the jail, and run them from the jailed environment, so
there would be fewer run-time problems, and no work to transfer them
over.  Remember that you've got to ensure that there is no problem
with run-time linking of shared libraries, some of which (in your
current scheme) will have both 32-bit and 64-bit versions with the
same soname.  You can probably work around this problem as well, but
it seems easier to leave them in the jail.
