chroot has nothing to do with this, it's simply bash not letting you import a function.

The space between function name and () is probably your problem.
Comment by Dave Reisner (falconindy) - Saturday, 27 September 2014, 16:48 GMT
Exporting the function doesn't make sense here. Is this the real use case? You could get rid of 'set -a' and this will continue to work as is...

@Dave Reisner
it's not for export function, it's for variables. I removed all the superfluous code for testing.

@Jan de Groot
I try whitout space between function_name(){, it's the same.
I try function myfunc {, the same
