I looked at this several years ago. As I recall, the problem at the time was that the Apple and Sun DTrace implementations were incompatible, or that the probes they had inserted into their own /usr/bin/python instances were incompatible. (Don't remember which off the top of my head.) Of course, the DTrace folks at Apple and Sun weren't really interested in holding hands...

Right. They use two different set of probes because Python doesn't provide "official" probes :-).

If I recall correctly, they were basically identical, with an extra parameter somewhere. I think my patch provides a superset.

Anyway, I don't think neither of them support Python 3. Time to step in and liderate.
