There is some strange error in 20090124 snapshot:

% uname -a

ERROR: The effective user ID of staprun must be set to the root user.
  Check permissions on staprun and ensure it is a setuid root program.
Pass 5: run completed in 0usr/10sys/122real ms.
Pass 5: run failed.  Try again with another '--vp 00001' option.

Here staprun is suid-root, and stap is able to run staprun and it can remove old
module and load new one (it displays "hello world"), but after that staprun
complains that it is not suid-root and cannot remove the module.

Everything works fine when run under root.

I do not remember anything similar with 20090117 snapshot and 2.6.28 kernel.
