freebsd-update uses binary patches. They are not entire files you could
simply replace on your system. As you have witnessed, applying a binary
patch intended for a 64bit binary to a 32bit binary has dire
consequences. Unfortunately the data in /var/db/freebsd-update is
completely worthless for your 32bit jail.
