Are you on Leopard?

If so, you need to run procfs as a non-daemon--either foregrounded
(use the "-f" command-line option), or run it through launchd (the
source tree has a procfs.plist launchd configuration file). If you
don't do this and run it backgrounded, procfs /will/ crash on Leopard,
sooner or later, because certain things it uses aren't usable by
"daemons". The README file in the source tree tells you to run it
foregrounded on Leopard.
