Thanks.
The difference is that dropwatch uses tracepoints only, and does not
rely on kernel symbol/debug data. That in turn means that stap does
not emit build-id-checking code. A better test would be to vary
kernel version and/or systemtap version, but running with the same
script. (Even a simple one like probe kernel.function("sys_open"){}
should show the problem.)
I'm building myself a 2.6.34-rc3 kernel to see if something became
broken lately.

That's OK, runtime/autoconf-* bits are meant to detect kernel
characteristics by compilation success / failures.
