* What's new since version 0.5.13?
+- The way in which systemtap resolves function/inline probes has changed:
+ .function(...) - now refers to all functions, inlined or not
+ .inline(...) - is deprecated, use instead:
+ .function(...).inline - filters function() to only inlined instances
+ .function(...).call - filters function() to only non-inlined instances
+ .function(...).return - as before, but now pairs best with .function().call
+ .statement() is unchanged.
