Oh, I forgot to mention that I saw a few Tcl errors when running the tests:

    Running ./systemtap.base/sdt_misc.exp ...
    sh: /usr/bin/kill: not found
    ERROR: tcl error sourcing ./systemtap.base/sdt_misc.exp.

It seems that it looks for /usr/bin/kill but on my Debian system, kill
is actually at /bin/kill. Maybe we should make this a bit more
portable?

Another Tcl error is this:

    Running ./systemtap.base/implicitptr.exp ...
    ERROR: tcl error sourcing ./systemtap.base/implicitptr.exp.
    ERROR: can't read "extraname": no such variable

       invoked from within
    "for {set i 0} {$i < [all_compile_flags]} {incr i} {
     set extra_flag [all_compile_flag $i]

       (file "./systemtap.base/implicitptr.exp" line 30)
       invoked from within
    "source ./systemtap.base/implicitptr.exp"
       ("uplevel" body line 1)
       invoked from within
    "uplevel #0 source ./systemtap.base/implicitptr.exp"
       invoked from within
    "catch "uplevel #0 source $test_file_name""

Not sure what it is though :)
