server.exp uses [stap_run_batch] to run stap-client
via the $net_path hack. For each successful test, a
stap_NNNN.ko file is left behind in the testsuite build
directory.
If these buildok tests are the only place that uses
net_path, we should consider unhacking that, and
writing a special [stap_run_batch] proc variant that
knows it's being used for stap-client purposes. It
can then clean up stap_NNNN.ko residue.

While a stap-client can't validate & reuse a cached module, it
could still use the $SYSTEMTAP_DIR/cache to store .ko/.c files
returned from the server. The main benefit is that the cache
is automatically size-limited, and `pwd` is not littered with
.ko files.
