utrace probe support for fedora 9 (2.6.26 like) kernels?

[Mark Wielaard]

Hi,

Does it make sense to try to support the fedora 9 (2.6.26.3-29.fc9)
kernels for the utrace based probes? I am slightly confused which utrace
version this kernel has. So I don't really know what the
utrace_compatibility.h check should be for this though.But with the
following small patch most things seem to work.

Host: Linux dijkstra.wildebeest.org 2.6.26.3-29.fc9.x86_64 #1 SMP Wed Sep 3 03:16:37 EDT 2008 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Snapshot: version 0.7.1/0.135 git branch master, commit e8ea4501 + changes
Distro: Fedora release 9 (Sulphur)

		=== systemtap Summary ===

# of expected passes		17
# of unexpected failures	4

I haven't looked into the remaining 4 failures yet.

Cheers,

Mark
