Many of the tests use a goofy habit of printing a series of
systemtap starting probe
systemtap test success
systemtap test success
systemtap test failure
systemtap test success
pattern. This is fragile and unnecessary. If the script wants
to evaluate its own success, let it print a single pass/fail
at the end. It would often be better if the test scripts just
printed a result value, and let the dejagnu script compare it
to expected values.
