When migrating to OCaml, these extra sections in the ELF are not added
anymore. I read they were added to help packagers (IIRC it started
from the SUSE guys), so they could easily notice the binaries used by
the daemon, and add the proper dependencies.
Do we still want to keep this possibility, somehow? If not, I'd just
do a wholesale removal of GUESTFSD_EXT_CMD.

I notice this pattern done every time, and IMHO it could be simplified:
in utils.ml(i), add something like:
let create_chroot ?name () =
Chroot.create (Sysroot.sysroot ()) ?name
this way it can be used like:
let chroot = create_chroot ~name:(sprintf "file: %s" path) in
+
+ let statbuf = Chroot.f chroot lstat path in
Hm is chroot needed for this? The current C implementation does not
use CHROOT_IN/OUT, and it does not even resolve symlinks, so it should
be safe.
