I had the same problem when I was writing JailAdmin (sysutils/jailadmin), 
and eventually solved it by using jexec to execute ps from within a jail.  
This is actually a lot faster than opening and reading a lot of files from 
within /proc, *and* allows you to run a system without a mounted proc 
filesystem should you want to do so.
