The war story
http://sourceware.org/systemtap/wiki/WSKernelProfile?highlight=((WarStories))
uses probefunc() to determine which function that a sample is taken in. In the
war story function names are returned. With the latest versions of systemtap the
probefunc() return hexadecimal instruction pointer address rather than the
function it maps to. Narrowed the dates for the change that caused this to
between 2008-07-09 and 2008-07-11.
