From the preceding discussion, I got the impression that deleted files might occassionally be shown with incorrect names due to the workings of the dcache. This seems to negate the value of showing the name in /proc at all - perhaps it would be better to simply show the file handle as a regular file rather than a symlink. Then there's no implication that you can follow the link manually.
