If you run 64bit normal system and 64bit chroot, yeah that could cause
problems. The ld.so.conf stuff is only for mixing 32/64 together.

bind mounting /dev and /home is generally a good idea for the chroot.
mounting /proc is also required (no bind needed of course).
/tmp may also make sense to bind mount since some things use sockets in
/tmp.
