Agreed, we need this.

It should be possible, especially now that stapdyn can always call directly
into the probe module - just have to decide what that interface should be. 
I've been debating to myself whether to add more stapdyn.h functions for things
that staprun does in transport messages, or to just add a single transport-like
message interface.

It may also be slightly tricky to juggle the static global-initialization,
which must happen after shared memory init, versus the dynamic -G values, which
still need to be set before any begin probes.
