What are these buying the OP over chroot for what he wants to do?
Sometimes chrooting is not so easy. I tried it for apache + mysql + php + some cgi-scripts, and it did not work. I have spent over month with it, and still a lot of things were broken, libraries/links missing, etc. On the other hand, most of applications should be able to run on virtual server with none or very little modification. Maybe that is one point... I use chroot for bind and ftp, because the support it directly. But I do not know how to do chroot for mail-server, web-server, or some game-servers...
