I thought it needed to be build for the host system, plus it wants to be 
accessible from the target, too. When it doesn't exist in the chroot:

kver -r 8.0 -p sparc chroot /usr/sandbox /bin/sh
Cannot open "/usr/local/lib/libkver.so"

In the past, and with the 8.1 chroot, I can copy /usr/local/lib/libkver.* 
/usr/sandbox/usr/local/lib/, and it works just fine.

Now, with the 8.0 chroot and the 64 bit libkver.so, I get the ELF error. 
So, I kver chrooted to 8.1, built libkver there, then copied the 32 bit 
libkver.* to the 8.0 chroot, and it works.

Next, I compiled perl from 2019Q2 there, and it works.

Something's broken about our 8.1 chroots :(
