I have taken a look, but libdwarf and libelf were reorganized quite a
bit, and it would require library bumps, which are difficult (but
apparently not unheard of) for stable branches. I am also not sure if
the actual workarounds can be successfully ported back to the versions
of libdwarf, libelf and CTF in stable/10 and stable/9.
In other words, it is going to take a while to fix it. If you really
need DTrace, you can compile your kernel with gcc for now.
