    gnu: xscreensaver: Don't read /proc/interrupts at configure time.
    
    Fixes a bug whereby, on some machines, ./configure would fail with:
    
      Warning: Checking of /proc/interrupts was requested, but it's bogus.
    
    * gnu/packages/xdisorg.scm (xscreensaver)[arguments]: Pass
    '--without-proc-interrupts'.
