[bug #49730] /proc/PID/environ returns I/O errors on read attempts

[Joshua Branson]

Follow-up Comment #1, bug #49730 (project hurd):

I think I understand the main things that were said in the first paragraph.  I
wrote a short bash program to try to run 

cat /proc/936/environ 

1000 times.  The program seemed to run fine, but I'm not sure if it got an I/O
error.  I assume that if it did get an I/O error, the program would have
crashed, and it did not crash...

So hopefully I'm not wasting everybody's time by commenting on this bug.
