Agreed. We'll have that fixed eventually.

Jörg, imo, we need a config option like "ignore_fstypes" which is
initialized to a regexp like (proc|usbfs|devpts|sysfs). We already
read the output of /sbin/mount to determine a list of the mount
points, so exclusing certain fstypes should be reasonably easy.

Greetings
Marc
