It is most easily demonstrated by running small_demos/proc_snoop.stp. But simple
reproducer equivalent is:

probe signal.send {
    printf("signal sent %d (%s) to task %d\n", sig, sig_name, task);
}

Retrieval of the task argument causes a failure. If task is not included in the
probe, it works fine. 

Results:

sudo stap -vv ./signal_bug.stp 

(snip)

semantic error: unable to find local 't' near pc 0xffffffff8103fcfc
(alternatives: sig q p flags ret): identifier '$t' at
/usr/local/share/systemtap/tapset/signal.stp:78:12
semantic error: unable to find local 't' near pc 0xffffffff8103fcfc
(alternatives: sig q p flags ret): identifier '$t' at :78:12

Snippet of relavant signal.stp code piece:

probe _signal.send.part3 = kernel.function("send_sigqueue")
{
    name = "send_sigqueue"
%( kernel_v > "2.6.25" %?
    task = $t
    sig = $q->info->si_signo
%:
    task = $p
    sig = $sig
%)

My system setup:

rpm -q kernel kernel-devel kernel-debuginfo

kernel-2.6.25.10-86.fc9.x86_64
kernel-devel-2.6.25.10-86.fc9.x86_64
