Seems like a strange duplication, given that /bin is just a symlink to
/usr/bin.

The interface list above only lists the x86 version, while SPARC is
mentioned here.  Since this seems to depend only on generic DTrace probes,
it should be available on SPARC as well (and if not, there needs to be a
strong justification for the omission).
