[Bug tapsets/10424] All tracepoints are unusable if any one header is bad


------- Additional Comments From jistone at redhat dot com  2009-07-21 00:36 -------
My plan is to build a separate tracepoint query module for each header, so
there's no one point of failure.  That will take more time to build in pass-2,
but the modules are cached independently of the user's script.  Hopefully the
one-time penalty will be acceptable.

The bonus is that this should make it easier to notice when the tracepoint
headers have changed, and we can also throw in support for external tracepoint
headers (e.g. in an out-of-tree kernel module).
