-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

I've been using systemtap for some debugging and I noticed that it
can't probe a lot of modules.     Turns out it's kind of silly,  the
sections section of /sys/module is limited to 32bytes and many of the
actual sections are a a bit longer than that.  

It seems to fix systemtap.
