Which can not work, since /proc must be the /proc of the machine WHICH
is mounting the nfs-share.
/proc contain infos about the running processes on the current machine
and if ANY programs accessing /proc and do not find the corresponding
PID/infos or such, it will hang. It will NOT even find its OWN PID.
MANY programs depend on the /local proc and not a bind-mounted /proc
from another machine.
Do you have already tried to run a testmachine where /proc is not
mounted? Try it and you will see tonns of unexpected errors and
program behaviors. My Development-Station (Dual-Opteron) refuse to
enter "init 2" while booting.
