If I do a chroot to /mnt, then there is no "/mnt" in /proc/self/mounts
within this environment. Instead I see yet another entry for '/'.
This certainly looks like something private.

Maybe it would be easier for everybody if /proc/mounts (without "/self")
could always show the "real" mount points at the top level? A bind mount
of /abc to /mnt/abc would appear as /mnt/abc in /proc/mounts at all levels.
I could live with that.
