[DTrace-devel] [PATCH 4/5] test: fix test/demo/user/libc.d

Um, that's a bit confusing :P

But yes, for old non-unified-/usr systems, /bin/date is probably more
likely to exist than /usr/bin/date (though every system I can see has
a symlink in the one place point to the other).

They're not meant to be, and surely @@xfail is more appropriate, or
we'll just forget to unskip this. (This neither crashes the system nor
takes a long time, so @@xfail...)

This'll need later changes anyway, since "libc.so" is the wrong name and
we can't use globs there yet...
