Bernard and Andrea, sorry for the delay testing this out.
It didn't quite work. My initial analysis was wrong -- I didn't notice
that on the initrd, /lib64 is just a symbolic link to /lib. That's odd,
but it's intentional, so I don't want to mess with it. As long as we
don't have 32-bit and 64-bit versions of the same library, it should be
fine.
The problem is, that's what happens with libnss* on x86_64. The standard
x86_64 boel_binaries.tar.gz contains the 32-bit version of
lib/libnss_files-2.3.4.so. When boel_binaries is untarred, it overwrites
the 64-bit version because of that symbolic link! Since SSH is linked
against the 64-bit version, it dies.
Basically, we need to be sure only the 64-bit versions of libnss* make
it into boel_binaries on x86_64 (or if both make it into the tarfile,
that the 64-bit versions get untarred last). I think the 32-bit version
is getting pulled in from OPENSSH_OTHER_FILES, which is defined in
openssh.rul. This patch may fix it, but I don't have a build system set
up to test it on. Take a look and see what you think.
Thanks again for the help.
