Selecting grsecurity's "Proc restrictions" might possibly break few things. One of these things is rsyslog kernel logging capability. Upon booting this message would show up in my kern.log:
kernel: imklog: Cannot read proc file system, 1.
One way to solve this problem is to assign rsyslog to a special group (defined during the kernel configuration phase) which members are able to view all processes, network-related information, and kernel and symbol information.
