Yeah, SystemTap is very much Linux-specific and it really isn't worth
the effort to build any of the systemtap binary packages on other
kernels. For packages depending on systemtap-sdt-dev, I think that we
should follow the approach proposed by Samuel in #970614.

Thanks anyways for your patch, I appreciate it!
