I just wanted to say that I use chroot environments all of the time.
For many uses they are a godsend.  I would hate to see behavior
introduced that caused issues when /proc was not available.  I do have
chroot's where I set up /proc as a bind mount but those are for
persistent, long-lived environments only.  Most chroots that I use
(e.g. pbuilder) are short lived constructs.
