ahem, correct me if i'm wrong, but freebsd's /proc filesystem does not
have any cpuinfo. if you run a command under the linuxulator, /proc gets
mapped to /usr/compat/linux/proc, so the file you don't want to open
already provides that info (to wine in this case). i don't know about
your environment, but just for testing, how about taking the output of
cpuinfo, put it to a text file, edit it the way you need it and generate
/usr/compat/linux/proc as a symlink farm to the linuxprocfs with only
the cpuinfo replaced by the edited text file. would this do any harm?
cpuinfo is read-only AFAIK, so it might work :-)
