Fwd: Re: Fail to use Dtrace on FreeBSD 8.1-STABLE

As I posted in another email, the gcc crashes in latest RELENG_8. Another
explanation is that buildworld WITH_CTF=1 can crashes the gcc. I overwrote
the gcc with the version in 8.1_RELEASE, and I'm rebuilding everything.

I just want to know whether I'm supposed to be able to use Dtrace just with
a CTF-enabled kernel. And, if so, what should I do to make it actually
works. Thanks... guys.

The best way to predict the future is to invent it.
