What about to use lib/path.c? (you can add things like fscan() there..).
These functions allow to redirect open() requests to some
alternative place (for example /proc/foo to /mytests/proc/foo) so you
can add --sysroot command line option and write nice regression tests
:-) See lscpu for more details.

We can create a nice collection of /proc dumps from many archs (see
tests/ts/lscpu/mk-input.sh). If you prepare a script for IPC stuff
then I can create some dumps in our labs.
