A user was having trouble getting stap to accept a statement"func@file:line")
probe. The fix was to change the "file" component from an absolute pathname to
a pathname relative to the root of the kernel source tree.
Neither the stapprobes man page nor the Language Reference make it clear that
the pathname must be relative, although the examples in the Language Reference
show relative pathnames.
Am I correct in thinking that the pathname must be relative? Does this need to
be clarified anywhere besides in the stapprobes man page and the Language Reference?

Not exactly. The path name patterns need to match the path names as
seen by the compiler. A Red Hat kernel build happens to use relative
names, but others may not. We should try harder to support both, perhaps
with an implicit "**"-equivalent widget at the front of the path name
string.
