you need to specify the "amd64" arch, otherwise it appears to default to
"x86_64" (the linux kernel, and maybe centos distro, arch).  to see the
syntax, here's a full example:

vserver <vserver> build -m debootstrap --context <ctx> --hostname
<vserver> --interface <if>:<ip>/24 -- -d etch -m
http://http.us.debian.org/debian -- --arch amd64
