Ah ... though applying the specified config did fix it.

I meant all processes in the guest, not also those on the host. Some
were known to be running, eg Apache could be connected to, but
were not showing in the process list.

And my current configuration is to explicitly mount both proc
and dev/pts on the host's fstab. Doing this allows things to
work as expected, and as they used to do before being hit
with LVM on the host.
