Hello

I have never used gentoo but have you checked that your libc inside
the guest is actually installed? If a shared library is missing,
you'll (AFAIK) get "No such file or directory" while trying to execute
the binary, so that seems like it. If you *do* have the libc files
installed, try running ldconfig.
