It should be implementable in theory.  The biggest gotcha will be that
you need to build lsv_amin with a spool dir of /chroot/home/listserv/spool
but have lsv run with a spool dir of /home/listserv/spool.  You'll have
to play similar games with the web interface if you use it.

One big headache will be that you need a /bin/sh in the chroot environment
to run ~listserv/go.  Also, look carefully at the 'go' script to make
sure you have all the other binaries it might need.  And don;t forget
the libc and other shared libs you might need. ;)

Note that I haven't tried it. ;)
