The whole point of this is that it should *actually* be readonly. It works fine
on other distributions.

If you have a chroot for security reasons, having a read/write mounted /proc
makes the whole exercise pointless.

Silently converting the requested ro mount to a rw mount, if that is what you
say is happening now, is completely unacceptable.

What kind of info do you need from me specifically?
