Little valgrind issue

Hello,

I tried to build 'valgrind' in a jail environment. The Makefile tries  
to make sure that /proc is mounted before it build valgrind, which is  
fine, but the way it does it won't work in a jail because /sbin/mount  
does not show anything useful.

A quick workaround: define the environment variable  
'PACKAGE_BUILDING=yes' and then run 'make' and 'make install'

It would be better if the Makefile would just look for, say, the  
existence of '/proc/curproc' in stead of relying on /sbin/mount.
