You could mount -bind the /home into the chroot like you do with /tmp.
yes, this was probably the smartest way to do it, however, I had already

Hi there
I have a problem which from what I have been able to google it seems to
be 64bit related. I have a Gentoo/x86_64 system and abiword-2.2.11
installed (-debug -gnome +jpeg -spell +xml2). I have found a mail thread
