This is technically not Debian *Linux* at all -- it's a Debian project to merge a BSD kernel with all the GNU shlibs and the various other utilities used on Debian systems. See http://www.debian.org/ports/kfreebsd-gnu/ and http://wiki.debian.org/Debian_GNU/kFreeBSD jail(8) uses the same kernel image in the jail as in the base system. So, in general, jails have to contain pretty much the same OS as the base. There are some variations possible, like running a 32-bit world in a jail on a 64-bit box, or running alternate FreeBSD versions to the main system (takes a bit of tweaking to make work properly, but this is used by the ports build cluster for example).
