illumos gate

Debugging a change to libdtrace, I lofs mounted my development copies over the copies in /usr (I had my reasons...)

when DTrace crashed (because of my changes), the resulting core dumps were undebuggable because any libproc consumer would ASSERT when directed to consume the dump.

We're failing this:

420            /*
421             * We know that tmp was an absolute path, so if we
422             * made it here we know that (p == tmp) and that
423             * (*p == '\\0').  This means that we've managed
424             * to check the whole path and so we're done.
425             */
426            assert(p == tmp);

... in Plofspath

The stack looks like so
