I posted a bug about this (http://hackage.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/2971) but its so odd I had to ask here.  Using ghc 6.10.1, both readFile "/proc/mounts" and Data.ByteString.Lazy.Char8.readFile "/proc/mounts" hang on an amd64 machine running Linux.  Also, Data.ByteString.readFile "/proc/mounts" returns the empty string.  Is this behavior present for others?  On i386?
 
I can now confirm that this bug also affects the i386 architecture.
