This would be true if the resolver libraries are loaded dynamically...
which seems to be true.  I just found a CentOS 7 system to test on, and
it seems that libnss loads its modules dynamically, grrrrr.

OK, so, tom, you should also find your libnss_* libraries - the easiest
way is through `ldconfig -p | fgrep -e libnss_files` - and copy all of
the libnss_*.so* (both the *.so ones and the *.so.something ones) into
the corresponding directories in your chroot.  I believe that the ones
in the /lib64 directory should be enough - e.g. I think that it might be
enough to do this:

  mkdir /var/run/stunnel/lib64
  cp -p /lib64/libnss_*.so* /var/run/stunnel/lib64/

...but if this doesn't work, you should also copy all others from all
the directories mentioned in the `ldconfig -p | fgrep -e libnss_files`
output.

Sorry for doubting the "dynamically loaded resolver modules" idea at
first :(

G'luck,
Peter
