             Bug #: 14168
           Summary: sanitize environment better for invoking
                    kernel-module-builder make
           Product: systemtap
           Version: unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: translator
        AssignedTo: systemtap@sourceware.org
        ReportedBy: fche@redhat.com
    Classification: Unclassified


Sometimes stap is invoked with a $PATH etc. that is not suitable for building
kernel modules, for example if an oddball compiler happens to be first. 
Encourage buildrun.cxx to use the "system" compiler, assumed in /usr/bin. 
Unfortunately, the kernel kbuild mechanism doesn't offer hints as to where the
compiler may have been when the original kernel was built.
