frysk-core/TestRunner gets heaps of NullPointer exceptions

The underlying problem is illustrated this: cagney@tomago$ cat /proc/2151/stat cat: /proc/2151/stat: Permission denied cagney@tomago$ ls -l !$ ls -l /proc/2151/stat -r--r--r-- 1 root root 0 Jan 7 17:46 /proc/2151/stat cagney@tomago$ cp /proc/2151/stat /tmp cp: cannot open `/proc/2151/stat' for reading: Permission denied cagney@tomago$ read < /proc/2151/stat x -bash: /proc/2151/stat: Permission denied The FRYSK testsuite assumes that it can follow process chains all the way to PID one. With SELINUX enabled that may not be possible. Disabling SELINUX lets the testsuite work.
Build documentation updated; noted that SELINUX should be set to a permissive mode that allows access to /proc.
