Some comments regarding the linux packages:
  - the goal with the linux_base ports is to switch from Fedora to CentOS
  - the linux_base ports are not designed for the use with chroot
  - the linux_dist port can be used with chroot
  - do you mind to give the linux_base-c6 port a try and maybe even use
    it as a base for your development?

But linux_base is a repackaging of the various linux shared libraries into yet another package. Why even bother doing this, if this all is already pre-packaged by linux folks? CentOS also uses rpm/yum, just like Fedora. The difference is merely a repository string for yum. I am not sure if this will practically even make any difference at all, stock Fedora vs. stock CentOS. I can install any rpm package in fewer lines of code than in a Makefile of linux_base-c6.

User side done this way works like a charm. Most work is to implement missing kernel features, and some yet unexplained malfunctions. Missing futex operations being one of them, but there are quite a few others.
