[Bug translator/4281] two problems with "stap -m"

Problem 1.  There is at least one reason for using '-m NAME' without '-k' - to
disable caching.  Admittedly there is another way to disable caching
("SYSTEMTAP_DIR=/dev/null stap close.stp"), but it is uglier.

Problem 2.  Does this happen with any extension or just '.ko'?  Is any extension
valid?  For instance, are any of the following valid?

stap -m close.c close.stp
stap -m close.o close.stp
stap -m my.close.module close.stp

We should probably worry about other special characters in the module name, such
as '/'.
