You've got several choices:

- grab the pid2task() definition out of current systemtap source (you
can use gitweb:
<http://sources.redhat.com/git/gitweb.cgi?p=systemtap.git;a=summary>)
and stick it in your script

- grab the version of systemtap (0.9.7) going into rhel5.4 betas and
install it on your system

- check out the current version of systemtap and build/install it on
your system
