The boel binaries tarball also extracts some library files, and it's important that they don't conflict, or that they are a superset of the library files in the initrd. Look for use of the mklibs command in the makefiles.
Hope that helps.
You are in unsupported territory certainly, but I'll be glad to give you tips here and there.
Cheers, -Brian

Hmmm, according to the SystemImager documentation, -pic libraries are supported, so I had installed libc6-pic on my Debian Sarge/Testing machine. It seems that was where the problems lie.
Removing that library and recompiling everything has worked around the problem, but I think this is a problem that should be addressed for the next release (I don't pretend to understand what that error message really means).
Note that the error doesn't show itself if you just run 'tar --help'. You have to be in an operational mode to cause the nss lookup.
