About this commit... It seems to have broken the rpc.stp probe
on a 2.6.32 kernel... I'm currently in the process of fixing things, 
but I've run across an compilation error that has me stumped.

The compile error is:
stap_22691.c:5944: error: 'union <anonymous>' has no member named 'function_vers_from_prog'

The C code line in questions is:
c->locals[c->nesting+1].function_vers_from_prog.program = l->__tmp12;

The function looks like:

function vers_from_prog:long(program:long, vers:long)
{
    if (program
    && vers < @cast(program, "rpc_program", "kernel:sunrpc")->nrvers)
        return 0
    return @cast(program, "rpc_program", "kernel:sunrpc")->version[vers]->number
}

The systemtap version is 1.2-1

any ideas?
