what exactly do want to achieve? having 'su' inside a chroot jail is not
 very common. su is a setuid binary (not recommended in a jail) and it
probably needs access to the shadow file (not in the jail) to check
passwords.

perhaps there are other (more secure) ways to accomplish what you want
to do.
