Could you try running the statically-linked bash from
‘static-binaries.tar.xz’ and see if the same error occurs?  Perhaps
strace it so we can see where that error comes from.

Looking at
<http://sourceware.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/src/gdb/syscalls/?cvsroot=src>,
syscalls have different numbers in n64 vs. n32.  So I suppose the kernel
needs to be compiled to support the n64 ABI?
