I forgot to add in first reply-

Does this mean that pre/post(un) scripts should be policywise-forbidden from
doing anything which directly or indirectly tries to touch /proc, which in a
chrooted environment, will not be mounted?  I have this hunch that I've run
into rpms which do try to touch proc, though off the top of my head I can't
point any fingers.
