[DTrace-devel] [PATCH] Relocation processing of STBSZ in ERROR's get_bvar() is too early

I don't thibk this is the right solution.  There are other values that are
resolved as a relocation in dt_link_construct() and that could be found in
an ERROR clause and thus get resolved before the correct value is known.

Instead, I think we need to simply move the construction of the dt_error
program into dt_bpf_load_progs().  I should have done that when I split
up program construction and loading into two distinct phases.

I'll post an alternative patch in a moment...
