I have that same version of libc6.1 on my Lenny system, but in the chroot it has version 2.13-8+alpha1 (where +alpha1 indicates one of my patches). If you are compiling a 2.13 series eglibc make sure you get 2.13-10 which is the first to contain the aforementioned patch; without it your chroot will be screwed. One symptom is that apt-get will refuse to install any packages whatsoever due to misdetected free space on the disk. When I set up my chroot on the Lenny system I think I used debootstrap with apt sources pointing at debian-ports. The debootstrap didn't complete installation of packages as there were conflicts in debian-ports. It didn't even get apt-get installed. Fortunately I have a mirror of my approx cache taken at the time the Debian Alpha autobuilders were shut down so I was able to copy packages from that and manually install with dpkg. Eventually I got the conflict resolved. Then I pointed the chroot apt sources at my own repository and upgraded to that. That's when the libc6.1 12.3 series got installed. I think the only other problem I had was a misconfiguration in the chroot configs (it didn't mount /dev/pts so some sbuilds initially failed).
