--- Comment #1 from David Smith <dsmith at redhat dot com> ---
I believe this is related to the following commit:

==================
commit b50e1cd22c61f8f3b32b249a203a1f053ef0fe4c

    linux/runtime.h: more CONFIG_USER_NS fallout                                

    Partially unrolling commit 7d35a948401, because on modern kernels           
    (3.14+), the from_k?id_munged functions are defined as inlines, and         
    should be used regardless of CONFIG_USER_NS etc.  The buildrun.cxx          
    exportedness test for from_kuid_munged would fail, triggering our           
    runtime to use a do-nothing macro instead.                                  

    Until a more programmatic way is found for those unidentified older         
    kernels that have CONFIG_USER_NS but no from_k?id_munged inlines,           
    for now a user will have to work around the build problem with              

      % stap -DSTAP_FAKE_KID_MUNGED                                             
===================

I'm working on a fix.
