For me, proc01 runs very quickly, < 1sec.  It does return a failure, looks 
like it isn't happy reading from /proc/sys/net/ipv4/route/flush.  IMHO this 
isn't really a bug since flush is only meant to be written to, not read from. 
 But proc01 is a pretty nice test I think and it would be nice if we had it 
expect errors like that for certain cases (like flush).
I don't know why it's taking so long for you.  What state is the process in?  
Have you tried running an strace against the pid, or a ps to get the WCHAN to 
see where it is stuck?
