Correct.

But that gives a contradiction when n == 0 - we can't show exactly 0
lines for an unbound multi subsys, and still show every subsystem.

Does libcgroup actually parse /proc/cgroup? If not, maybe we should
just break the format now and replace it with something more
extensible for future changes.

Right, changes to test programs aren't a compatibility issue.
