That sounds a bit useless that after the su I can access all files in /proc/'pid'/ and I can list the real file but not the link in /proc/'pid'/ to the real file.
The process in question has effective UID 0 / root. How can you argue that any non-root user should be able to access its /proc information? You do realize that the process ID of the shell resulting from the su invocation is not the same as that of the shell through which su was invoked, right?
I can't believe that this makes sense and is intended.
It seems beyond question, to me.
