For a change this small, we don't need a copyright assignment.  It's
not large enough to be copyrightable.

The fix looks reasonable, but can you give me an identifier to
demangle that makes the bug appear?

   The round of optimizations we performed on configure.host didn't
   make it to configure.tgt.   So SVR5 gets detected as SVR4.0 so it
   gets /proc filesystem handling silently wrong. :-(

Argh!  The change is in the trunk, but I forget to add it to the 4.18
branch also.  Well, there's a third patch for 4.18.1...
