Subject: Re: readstringlist weird behaviour when reading /proc/mounts on linux

Most files under /proc (including /proc/mounts) report a size of zero bytes. 
CFEngine's file-reading function checks the file size: 
https://github.com/cfengine/core/blob/master/src/evalfunction.c#L3746

This is why reads on this file are not returning anything.

I'm not sure if this qualifies as a bug or not - maybe one of the developers on 
the list can provide a better answer for this.
