Rabbit accesses /proc/meminfo to obtain total memory information so it 
can tune its memory monitoring and paging. I've filed a bug to make this 
more robust.

There should have been an error in the rabbit.log and rabbit-sasl.log 
files. Can you post that please? That way we can make sure that it was 
really the /proc/meminfo access that was the issue.
