could you share more details about your setup?

does it need to run on pure 32bit to reproduce? I can't reproduce when
doing cross build and running 32 bit pahole on x86_64.. I do see some
errors though

  [667939] STRUCT bpf_prog_aux Error emitting BTF type
  Encountered error while encoding BTF.

thanks,
