	The easiest way to get that started is to enter the chroot and
change /etc/apt/sources.list so that each time you see "stable" it now
says "testing".

	Then perform what we colloquially refer to as a "shaboom"
(props to George Moffitt for that one):

	apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade

	(all of these operations will require root privilege or sudo
within the chroot).

	Now, there is a trick to getting your kernel version straight
that will interfere with your ability to build HEAD's glibc, but that
is outside the scope of a chroot.  Inkblot may be able to comment
better on that situation.
