So the chroot tarball for 5.0 being used here must be the > wrong one, or it's screwed up. uname extracts the various strings it can report from the running kernel using sysctl. Unless you have a faked uname, it will return the properties of the host non-chroot environment, rather than the chroot environment. Increasingly, it's going to be harder and harder to run 5.0 in a 4.x chroot, due to divergence in system calls, especially once threaded applications start using KSE. Running 4.x in a 5.0 chroot should (hopefully) continue to work fine.
