Hi Stefan,
  thanks for fixing this.

It should be quite easy to trigger this, just try to execute some random
systemtap example scripts (located in /usr/share/systemtap).

You should get the reported error on the function on_each_cpu.

Too bad I'm using Jaunty now, so I've not access to Intrepid machines
anymore.

Thanks
