Some experimentation shows that systemtap is okay (modulo a small bug
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=520469) but OS X's
version of dtrace seems to have different switch syntax. I'm a bit
confused by that because I thought we'd tested this stuff on OS X
way back when, and this commit doesn't seem to have touched the
dtrace arguments ...
