Turns out it's reproducible with

] fakeroot /usr/sbin/debootstrap --foreign sid sid $MIRROR
] echo $?

or

] sudo /usr/sbin/debootstrap --foreign sid sid $MIRROR
] echo $?

or

] sudo /usr/sbin/debootstrap sid sid $MIRROR

too; the problem being that libc6 and binutils both reference /usr/lib64,
but libc6 thinks it should be a symlink and binutils thinks it should be
a directory containing a file. After tar unpacks a directory and file from
binutils; it complains when it tries unpacking the symlink from libc6.
