Sorry, I forgot about that.  The probe used to fire  because Frank had
to disable the test because it was crashing.  I'm not sure what has
changed that is preventing the itrace probe from firing.  I experimented
a bit and found that if I added a uprobe that didn't do anything related
to the itrace probe, then the itrace probe would fire.  This is going to
take further study.  Any ideas on what might have changed?

I'm afraid you question is a bit too broad for me to answer. As far as the task_finder goes, some internals have changed to support the new version of utrace, but the external interface hasn't changed.
FYI . . . Dave is no longer available to work on this task, so I'll be taking it over. It will take me some time to come up to speed. I just didn't want you all to think that this patch submission was being dropped or neglected.

Thanks.
