Unfortunately, a single test case will not help with this, in
that in any plausible run of the form
stap -u -e 'probe syscall.* { }'
there will be a mixture of fixable and unfixable bugs. So the test
case will always fail overall, and whatever fixing is possible will
be difficult to notice as progress until *everything* is solved.
