One aspect that may need a specific callout is the syscall tapset fixes.
Without that fix, many users may hit the problem of not being able to
trace syscalls on 'exotic' architectures.

Some architectures now use syscall wrappers (HAVE_SYSCALL_WRAPPERS).
The syscall tapset has been enhanced to take care of the syscall
wrappers in this release.
