Just a heads up that an issue in SystemTap was found where using the __get_argv() function in tapset could result in a crash of the SystemTap script that calls it (and syscall.execve) or, if it's running as root, could lead to a hang/crash of the system running the script. This flaw has been assigned CVE-2010-0411.
