The exact piece of code in question is:

chroot $fsmount python -m compileall /usr/lib /usr/share > /dev/null

and the place:

modules/base/preimage.90.core.sh

It would probably be cleaner to add chroot to path. I believe Martin 
Langhoff fixed this in OOB a few months ago, so it could just be a 
matter of cherry-picking a commit.
