Added work around to avoid running the test on RHEL4 system.

    Disable systemtap.examples/process/noptrace.stp on RHEL4 systems (PR12498)

    The debug information on RHEL4 kernels appears to be wrong. This causes
    the noptrace.stp example to write into the wrong location. Rather than the
    ptrace syscall exiting immediately, the ptrace syscall continues and the
    test hangs on RHEL4 systems.  The noptrace.stp test is disabled on RHEL4
    systems to work around this issue.
