  actually, would it be possible to simplify the code?  i see that
systemtap's stat.c defines its own CPU iteration macro:

#define stp_for_each_cpu(cpu)  for_each_cpu_mask((cpu), cpu_possible_map)

is there no way to directly use the kernel's <linux/cpumask.h> file,
and something like "for_each_possible_cpu"?

  in any event, i "git clone"d systemtap so i can just pull the fix
when it's committed.
