If able, build yourself a new copy of systemtap out of the git tree,
and run your test with the "-t" (timing) flag.  You should get more
detailed counts about what skipped.  I believe there was also a bug
fixed related to the new MAXUPROBES configurable, which may have 
enabled a much smaller number of uprobes than intended.
