yes, i login like this:
sudo /usr/bin/linux32 /usr/sbin/chroot /var/archroot-releng-i686/ /bin/login

then just `make all`

could this be caused by installing archiso like this:
cd <archiso git dir> && make DESTDIR=/var/archroot-releng-i686/ install?
(ie install it from the host system, which is 64bit)
maybe that is what i messed up.
