gradm -E goes into endless loop

Maybe this is a silly rule, but defining an object rule

/usr/bin/someservice {

/proc/*/exe

}

seems to confuse "gradm -E" - it goes into endless- loop until the gradm- process is killed by the kernel bcs of eating all the memory. Does gradm parse all /proc- directories while self-creating ones and recurse forever ?? Should this be fixed ?

Best regards, Sandro Littke.

The only thing I could do is keep you from using any globbing on /proc at all, since it'll never be done legitimately.
Other than glob() just acting strangely, I don't know what in my code could be causing it.
