/proc permissions

Hi,

I think this is kernel related because I can't find a config solution for
my problem.
I want the directory /proc to be owned by root.proc and have chmod 750.
I put a chown and chmod in my systems startup script so after the system
boots everything is fine. But a few hours later it always changes to
root.wheel and chmod 755. If I chang the permissions again it'll stick
for a while but after sometime it goes back to the same thing again.

Do I need to change some setting for the proc file system in the source?
Does it check the permission of /proc once in a while and if it's not what
it expects does it change it back? (I'm only talking about the main /proc
directory I don't care about the files within).

Any help would be appreciated.
